The eggs from the intro

Ancient Eggs are objects which feature prominently in Rayman Adventures. They contain the Incrediballs. The Ancient Eggs used to reside inside the Sacred Tree, that is until some Lividstones broke inside the tree, stole the eggs, and unaware to them, had the eggs scattered all over the Glade of Dreams. One of these eggs fall upon Rayman or Barbara (whoever the player chooses) and this starts off the premise for the game. Eggs appear on both the world map and Adventure Map and are shown to be imprisoned in cages. In the early build, eggs have a different look.

Ancient Eggs make in return in Rayman Mini, where they can be found in Mr Dark's challenges.

Description

Ancient Eggs look like any ordinary egg, but they have scales upon their shells and come in four different colors that represent their rarity.

• Bronze: These eggs are common, meaning the player will be finding these more than others on the Adventure Map.
• Silver: These eggs are uncommon, meaning the player will be finding these less than bronze eggs, but more than gold and crystal eggs on the Adventure Map.
• Gold: These eggs are rare, meaning the player will be finding these less than bronze and silver eggs, but are way more common than crystal eggs on the Adventure Map.
• Crystal (Purple): These eggs are royal. These are rarest eggs in the game. These eggs only appear on the Adventure Map when all other lower rarity members of an Incrediball family have been found and hatched.

In Rayman Adventures

The Incubator

Main article: Incubator

Before the player can release the Incrediball within, the eggs must be incubated inside the incubator. In previous versions of the game, the hatch time for each egg was eight hours. But beginning in the 1.3.7 update, the hatch time has been reduced to four hours and in the 1.4.0 update, some eggs' wait times were reduced to two hours with bronze and silver surprise eggs only taking 30 minutes. Gold surprise eggs take an hour and thirty minutes to hatch. While inside the incubator, the player can use the elixirs they have obtained and alter the egg's rarity or hatch time. Though if the player finds and incubates a non-surprise egg, they cannot use a new creature elixir on it as that egg guarantees a new creature when hatched.

Surprise eggs

Hey, look what I found! It looks like an Incrediball Egg, but not quite... I wonder what's inside? Let's crack it open!

—The Captain, Rayman Adventures

Starting from version 1.5.5, duplicate eggs have now been replaced by surprise eggs. These eggs don't hatch new Incrediballs, but will instead reward the player with items, such as gems or food. All elixirs can be used on these eggs. Surprise eggs come in all rarities except crystal (royal).

In Rayman Mini

In Rayman Mini, Ancient Eggs can be obtained by completing Mr Dark’s challenges. Depending on the difficulty of the contract, the player can gain more eggs or eggs of higher rarities. These ones are slightly covered in thorns, and instead of Incrediballs, they house various other creatures. If a duplicate creature is freed, the player will receive gems as compensation.
