The mini Janos (whose official name is unknown) are a variety of enemies that are encountered only in Rayman 2 and its remakes. They are dark-green one-eyed round monsters with skeletal arms that are found mostly in the Cave of Bad Dreams, which is guarded by their much larger counterpart, Jano, though another one appears at a certain point in the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire.
The first type of mini Janos attack by breathing fire, and they often attempt to avoid Rayman when they look each other in the eye while attacking. Like Jano, they can dig underground, and they usually make their ambush at what seems to be a dead end, and there is usually more than one to defeat. If Rayman gets too close to them, they will grab and devour him.
The second type appears only once, and is characterised by a higher resistance and a different behaviour. Instead of breathing fire, this mini Jano hides behind columns, and only attacks Rayman (by leaping on him and biting him) when he turns away. The only way to defeat this one is to wait until it get close, turn towards it and shoot.
If mini Janos are met at a dead end, all of them need to be defeated in order to reveal a secret item, usually a plum or a Magic Sphere.
Occasionally, in Rayman Revolution, the mini Janos on the higher platform added in this version wear hats similar to their larger counterpart.
In the PlayStation version of the game, only the fire-breathing mini Janos appear, though twice as resistant and in both the Cave of Bad Dreams and the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire. In Rayman Revolution, both versions are notably weaker, especially those breathing fire, which on the other hand are more numerous.
Notes
- ↑ The exact resistance of fire-breathing mini Janos in Rayman Revolution is 1/3 (0.333…) hit point. They take three white shots or one blue shot to defeat.
