Bubble Bobble featuring Rainbow Islands
I need help getting Rainbow Islands to work. I tried Skillz's version in her folder on the ftp, but it crashes whenever I try to open the Rainbow Islands section. I've tried the Acclaim one from hotud, but that just doesn't initialise - something to do with copy protection. The other version I found (from UG, apparently) gives me illegal operations and refuses to open, either. I found a random copy on a French website, but that seems to be missing 'dad.info'.
Can anyone help me with a working version? I've been wanting to review this sequel to Bubble Bobble for some time

No problems here. Download the full CD from LTF. (They have English version) imgmount the iso in dosbox as D: Install the game from D: on C; in dosbox. Choose SB for sound and music. Runs fine. If you get 'missing blah blah' with the full version it means you probably screw up your mounts in dosbox. [Edit]  << click <<

I remember running this game in the past with DOSBox. Dosraider already said it all.
