Game Overview

Rainbow Islands takes everything you loved about Bubble Bobble and flips it in the best way possible. Instead of blowing bubbles, you're slinging rainbows—which sounds cute until you realize they double as platforms, traps for enemies, and even keys to hidden goodies. Bubby and Bobby are back, but now they're tiny humans jumping through these wild, candy-colored islands that get seriously tricky by the third stage.

The real magic? Those rainbows aren’t just for show. You’ll start using them to squash enemies from above, block projectiles mid-air, or even drop one just to see if it reveals a secret diamond stash. And yeah, there’s a proper ending this time—no cryptic "play again" nonsense. It’s got that same frantic energy as the original, but with way more "wait, can I actually do that?" moments when you figure out a new rainbow trick.

Honestly, the Master System version holds up surprisingly well—bright, bouncy, and just hard enough to make you sweat by the later islands.
