Playing in the Shade
Playing in the Shade is the third level of the Ticklish Temples, a world in Rayman Origins. It is the sixth Tricky Treasure level, where Rayman and his friends must chase a Tricky Treasure for a Skull Tooth. This is the first level from this world and the fourth overall included in the Back to Origins mode in Rayman Legends.

Rayman and his team find the Tricky Treasure at the end of the first platform. The chest thinks Rayman is going to attack it, so it runs away, and the chase begins. Getaway bluegrass music plays once it starts. The chase area appears to have tall mushroom-like plants in the background, though it is difficult to see the background clearly, as it is mostly a blue haze. Everything in the foreground is only seen as a silhouette. During the chase, the team must follow the Tricky Treasure across platforms, many of which sink when it lands on them, while avoiding round spiky flowers. The heroes are often assisted by Swingmen. Later in the level, the platforms fall faster and sooner. Once there is no room left to run, the Tricky Treasure will stop, allowing the players to punch it open. The Skull Tooth can now be collected to give back to Mister Death.
