The '''[[Lum]]s''' in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', [[Rayman Jungle Run]], ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', [[Rayman Fiesta Run]] and [[Rayman Adventures]] are beings of pure energy that can be collected by the heroes. They do not fit into the system of colours used for the [[Lum]]s in the other games of the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]]. These Lums are shown as sentient creatures with arms, legs, wings, eyes and mouths; unlike other games where Lums are simply orbs of energy with wings. | The '''[[Lum]]s''' in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]'', ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', ''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]'' and ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'' are beings of pure energy that can be collected by the heroes.

{{quote|text=Lums (pronounced “Looms,” like ilLUMination, and not Lums, for dumb) are beings of pure energy possessed of a mindbogglingly sunny disposition.

In [[Rayman Jungle Run]] there are a total of 100 Lums to be found in each level. The player is rewarded with a tooth once all Lums are collected in a level. 5 of these teeth will unlock the worlds [[Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman Origins)|Land of the Livid Dead]] level. The more Lums the player collects, the more artwork is revealed in the menu. | In ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]'' there are a total of 100 Lums to be found in each level.

Originally there was a bug causing Lums not to be reset correctly upon replaying a level, thus making it possibly to obtain more than 100 Lums in a level. This has since been fixed. | Originally there was a bug causing Lums not to be reset correctly upon replaying a level, thus making it possibly to obtain more than 100 Lums in a level.

In ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', Lums can now alternate between yellow and purple. Many Lums are part of chains, with the first link being purple. Every purple link the hero collects triggers the next link to turn purple, while collecting any other link makes the entire chain turn yellow. Therefore, as each Lum in purple state is worth two, collecting the chain in the correct order ensures a significant gain. | In ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', Lums can now alternate between yellow and purple.

Lums also have a significant larger role here as they're used to determine the players score in many of the [[challenge|challenges]]. | Lums also have a significant larger role here as they're used to determine the players score in many of the [[challenge|challenges]]. | ||

In [[Rayman Fiesta Run]], Lums are collected similarly to in Rayman Jungle Run. The main difference is that each time the player completes a level the Lums are added to a total Lum count. These Lums can be use to purchase costumes, artwork, power-up and new areas. Lums can also be purchased using real money through in-app purchases. | In ''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]'', Lums are collected similarly to in ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]''.

In [[Rayman Adventures]], Lums appear throughout all of the levels as the main collectible which determines the players rewards upon completing a level. While the highest amount of Lums collected isn't visible by the player, any in-game friends will be able to see it upon completing a level. This does however not serve any real purpose in the game and is only there for friendly competition. | In ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'', Lums appear throughout all of the levels as the main collectible which determines the players rewards upon completing a level.
