About this game

Rainbow Islands: The Story of Bubble Bobble 2 (レインボーアイランド) is a 1987 platform game developed and published by Taito for Japanese arcades. It is the sequel to 1986's Bubble Bobble, and the second of four arcade games in the Bubble Bobble series. The game was ported to home computers and home video game consoles.

This Port of Rainbow Islands released in North America and Japan includes different level layouts and game mechanics compared to the original arcade release. It also includes an island based on "KiKi KaiKai" as a replacement for Magical Island.

Storyline

Bubby and Bobby set off to rescue the inhabitants of the Rainbow Islands, who have been turned into Bubble Dragons by the evil Boss of Shadow. They must collect the big gems and mirrors on the ten Rainbow Islands and defeat the Boss of Shadow to return the islanders to normal.
