context_page_description: Rainbow Islands: The Story of Bubble Bobble 2 is a 1987 arcade game developed and published by Taito. The arcade version was licensed to Romstar for North American manufacturing and distribution. The game is subtitled "The Story of Bubble Bobble 2" and is the sequel to Taito's hit game Bubble Bobble from the previous year. It is the second of four arcade games in the Bubble Bobble series. The game was ported for numerous home computers and game consoles.
  The main characters are Bubblun and Bobblun, the protagonists of Bubble Bobble. However, in this game they appear in their human forms as "Bubby" and "Bobby", as opposed to the "bubble dragons" of the first game. Also unlike the first game, players must now "alternate", with player one as Bubby, and player 2 as Bobby.
