Play Rainbow Islands - The Story of Bubble Bobble 2 (Brazil) Online

Game Overview

Rainbow Islands takes the cute chaos of Bubble Bobble and cranks it up—instead of blowing bubbles, you're slinging rainbows everywhere. At first it feels weird—like, how do rainbows even hurt enemies?—but after squashing a few bouncing mushrooms under a neon arc, it clicks. The rainbows stick around for a second too, so you can use them as makeshift ladders to climb higher. Clever, but also kinda stressful when you're scrambling upward while some angry crab chases you.

It's got that same "just one more try" energy as the first game, though the levels feel more vertical. Sometimes the rainbows vanish too fast and you plummet right into an enemy, which... yeah, that still makes me yell at the screen. The Master System version's colors pop nicely, even if the music loops drive you nuts after a while. Definitely a solid follow-up if you liked the original's charm.
