Content

Although Taito ultimately followed up the original with some more formulaic, direct type sequels, Rainbow Islands tells the real and true Story of Bubble Bobble 2. Leon, Karl and guest Sadie Flayeh - along with correspondents from the Cane and Rinse community - muse on a more innocent time, when the deliriously cute and colourful Rainbow Islands was widely available on then-contemporary systems and a beloved part of the late 80s/early 90s gaming zeitgeist.Music featured in this issue:1.

Lovely to hear such a passionate and well-informed guest. And what a game!

A great show that brought back memories of playing this game with my brother back in the day on our Amiga 500.

Loved listening to this. Rainbow islands one of my favourite games and it brings back so many memories of playing it on my friend's Amiga on a black and white portable TV. Looked amazing when he finally got a colour TV for his bedroom.

A bit late for feedback but loved this one. My favourite episodes are these retro games. They give me a nice blast of nostalgia for my hazy memories of the early 90s at pontins and butlins as a small child. Leon’s enthusiasm is great, and the game mechanics are usually simple enough that it’s easy to understand the game just through audio descriptions of gameplay. It’s also great that I can easily have a go on the game on MAME after listening. More retro games for future playlists please!
