Game Description
Presented as an update to the NES' original Rainbow Islands, this DS platform game boasts smooth, colorful graphics and characters. Fans return to the Rainbow Islands to find that the hero Bubby has grown up a bit, and is now a practiced rainbow magician. He will need his rainbow-shooting powers once again, to make bridges across wide gaps and to take out the crabby bad guys who stand in his way. The game is designed to offer all the levels, power-ups, and sound effects of the original, but adds two new hidden characters designed by Harvest Moon artist Igusa Matsuyama.~ T.J.

Rainbow Islands Revolution is a game on the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable. It is an update of the original game, Rainbow Islands. Unlike in the original, the main character, Bub, rides in a bubble, and the player has to guide him with the stylus, and draw rainbows with it as well. Therefore, the game uses mainly the DS's touch screen.
Gameplay
The player has to drag Bub around using the stylus. Contact with enemies or dangerous objects such as spikes causes the player to lose a heart. When all hearts have been lost, the player loses a life and must begin the level anew.
When the player drags the stylus anywhere on the screen that isn't Bub, the player can create a rainbow. The rainbow serves as a barrier through which enemies can't cross. If the rainbow is drawn over an enemy, the enemy is killed. Additionally, when the player taps a rainbow, it falls down removing any enemies that lie below.
The player can also draw some special shapes which create rainbows with special effects.

Trivia
- The game was due to be shipped free to purchasers of Bubble Bobble Revolution, which contained a major bug in the North American version of the game, though this did not occur.
