About This Game

Bubby and Bobby embark on a quest across ten Rainbow Islands to save the inhabitants from a terrible curse. The Shadow Boss has transformed the islanders into Bubble Dragons, trapping them in their monstrous forms. To break the spell and restore everyone to their human state, the duo must traverse each island collecting powerful gems and magical mirrors. Their journey culminates in a confrontation with the Shadow Boss himself, whose defeat is the only path to redemption for the cursed population.
