Rainbow Islands: Arcade Platformer Review

Bit obvious this one but I thought I'd use up the screenshots we had so Jeff didn't think he was wasting his time hacking away on his +3. I'm not really going into long cliched descriptions of the game, you've already had that every-where else. What is worth mentioning is that Rainbow Islands is a platform game for people who don't like platform games. So for people who have never played it before, just look at the graphics and imagine the smoothest, slickest game you've ever played. Now multiply that by 50 and you are getting close to the truth. The music is good too... ho hum blah blah etc. Is it really the best piece of arcade software? Well actually I don't like this game for one simple reason. It only allows control via keyboard or Sinclair ports. Without a converter, I can't use my trusty zip-stick! Bastards.
