"One of the Best games of all time."

Rainbow Islands is a game where you are a little kid on a quest and on alone the way of that quest you come across all sorts of funny creatures like types of Flies and I think Hares and you must use you your special Rainbow shooting ability to kill them. The story of the game is supposed to be of the Bubble Bobble 2 game which I don't understand because it's about a boy and rainbows and not story about a two little dinosaurs and bubbles.
The game is different to the PAL version in little ways like sound effects and world layouts a bit different but not much I don't think and there is also a different BOSS at I think every stage.
The game is a bit like Mario, it has like 7 or 8 worlds with so many levels in the worlds.

The Graphics: The game does well in this department but, still its not the best, it has better graphics then Super Mario Bros but, not better graphics than SMB 1+2.
The graphics are pretty basic but still in a way are good but not great.

The Sound: The sounds of the game is like Mario again because when you jump you hear the whoop sound and when you shoot rainbows it sounds like the sound you hear when you fly with the racoon suit in SMB3. That's pretty much what you get in this game, not much sound at all but that still doesn't effect it's game play.

The Game Play: This is one of the BEST games I have played on my NES because it is really additive and it may sound boring but I am telling you it is not. You can play this game for hours on end with out ever getting bored. It has lots of levels and BOSS areas and also lots of bad guys to kill and you can all do it with s simple rainbow shoot.

The Challenge: This has a very big and hard challenge and can take you weeks or months to complete and that's what good about this game because of all the hard bad guys to kill and BOSS guys, its always going take you for ever to complete and because of that it will give you hours of entertainment.

Graphics>>6/10
Sound>>4/10
Game Play>>10/10
Challenge>>10/10

This game is one of my favourites so I would give it a perfect 10.
The End.
