Blue Mountains (French: Les Montagnes Bleues – The Blue Mountains) is the third world in the original Rayman game. This world is a mountain range that Rayman must climb, facing chasms and abrupt slopes as he makes progress towards the highest peaks.

Description

There are many adverse and dangerous weather conditions present, with frequent floods and snow tempests. Rayman must be careful not to fall from the heights of those cliffs, coming into contact with spiked grounding, the flying picks and the giant spiky balls. In the Rayman Junior games, stone carvings of Rayman and Mr Stone can also be found in these inhospitable rocky labyrinths. A few giant flowers, bracket fungi growing off logs and gnarled trees show the scarcity of the vegetation up there, while the numerous lava rocks seem to indicate the presence of volcanic activity. Thanks to the Musician's potion, Rayman can temporarily use the super helicopter to fly through the narrow and spiky crevasses.

The enemies in the Blue Mountains include Antitoons, hunters, stone men, stone dogs and picks. The boss is Mr Stone, a giant rock creature. Rayman will meet him first in Twilight Gulch during a frantic chase, and eventually fight him in Mr Stone's Peaks.

During his trek in the Blue Mountains, Rayman will receive the power of running from Betilla the Fairy, at the end of Mr Stone's Peaks.

In other games

Rayman Origins features an environment that bears a resemblance to the Blue Mountains: Mystical Pique. This world combines the Blue Mountains' setting with a snowy landscape. The stone men and lava rocks from this world return here, and the boss of the world, the Golem, could be seen as a spiritual successor to Mr Stone.
