About

The Story:
You have just discovered the secret path to all the treasures on the rainbow. Follow the edge of the rainbow and pick up all the gold you can carry. But beware!! The path to the fortune is trapped with mines. 

Mystery boxes:
You can pick up mystery boxes to temporarily enter a different mode of gameplay.

Flying High - Hang on to a balloon and fly above the rainbow, while popping other balloons for a score of 400 pts each.

Skull Crusher - Use the firebutton to hit the skulls on the rainbow with a baseball bat. You will be awarded 450 pts for each skull crushed

Mine Jammer - Mines close to you will be automatically destroyed, and 50 points awarded for each one. 

Golden Path - No mines will appear, and several gold coins are lined up directly in front of you. You will be awarded 300 pts for each collected.

How to play:
Use joystick in port 2 to navigate your character, and  press fire to jump or hit with the baseball bat. Run along the edge of the rainbow and pick up as many gold coins as possible, but look out for the black mines! You will be awarded 150 pts for each coin collected. As you run faster and faster, even more mines will appear. If you run into a mine it will explode and game is over.
