    And levels that bit wider than the DS screen? Irritating and just plain rubbish, a bit like this game. [June 2006, p.79]

    RIR is an interesting attempt at delivering arcade-style touch-screen thrills, but it falls short in execution. [Oct. 2006, p.90]

    A passing diversion, totally bereft of the addictive zeal of the original. In this case that's a step forward, if only a very tiny one.

    The game does try to differ with unique modes, including Story and Score Attack, but with the faulted gameplay and the basic presentation, the game never really gets over the rainbow.

    If this port/ remastering/ remake/whateveryou'dcallthis of Rainbow Islands Revolution was created with so little effort, I wouldn't recommend anybody make the effort to pull the box off a shelf and trade currency for it.

    Rainbow Island Revolutions is a joke.

    Bubbles are ALWAYS a plus in my book.

    P.S: where are Kulun & Koron in here? They would look cuter in Bubbles.

    Colorfull, oldskool, touchscreen, straightforward, iceclimberlike. If you like the 80's arcades, this one is just for you.
