Play Rainbow Islands Amiga Online

Rainbow Islands came to the Amiga in 1987, developed by Taito and published by Ocean Software. It arrived during a period when the Amiga was establishing itself as a serious platform for arcade conversions, and this one stood out with its bright colors and inventive mechanics. The game felt like a natural step up from its predecessor, Bubble Bobble, but with its own distinct identity and challenges.

You control a small character who must climb a series of islands by shooting rainbows from below. These rainbows act as both platforms and weapons; you can trap enemies beneath them or jump on the arches to reach higher areas. The main goal is to ascend each screen-based level, collecting diamonds and avoiding creatures that crawl, fly, or bounce toward you. Power-ups appear frequently, letting you shoot faster rainbows or unleash screen clearing special attacks. The pacing is brisk, and the difficulty ramps up noticeably in later islands, demanding quick reflexes and smart rainbow placement. It feels lively and unpredictable, with a constant push to climb higher before the rising sea below drowns you.
