Introduce
Rainbow Islands (USA) NES is a unique and colorful platformer that takes players on an adventure with Bubby (or Bobby), one of the two dragons transformed into humans from the famous game Bubble Bobble. The main goal of the game is to climb to the top of each island before the water level rises and defeat enemies along the way.
The highlight of Rainbow Islands is its innovative rainbow mechanics. Players can create rainbows for various purposes. Firstly, rainbows serve as the primary weapon to attack and destroy various types of monsters. When a rainbow is created, it flies in an arc and can stun or defeat enemies upon contact. Secondly, rainbows are also flexible means of movement. Players can jump onto the created rainbows to climb to higher levels, overcome obstacles, or access difficult areas. Additionally, rainbows can be used to block projectiles or flying objects from enemies.
Throughout the journey, players will face countless enemies with different shapes and movement patterns, from simple bugs to aggressive sea creatures. Each island has its own unique environmental characteristics and enemy types. To assist Bubby, various power-up items can be collected. These include shoes for increased movement speed, bottles that enhance rainbow creation abilities (allowing for more or stronger rainbows), and items that boost score or grant extra lives.
The game structure consists of seven islands, each with four smaller stages. At the end of every fourth stage on an island, players will confront a powerful boss, requiring strategy and skill to defeat. Another crucial element is collecting the colored diamonds hidden within each stage. If players collect all seven rainbow-colored diamonds (one of each color) in a specific stage, they will receive a significant score bonus. Collecting all diamonds is important to unlock the game's true ending.
Rainbow Islands offers a challenging yet highly engaging gameplay experience, with vibrant graphics and catchy music, leaving an unforgettable mark on fans of the platformer genre.
