It is a bit incredulous to imagine, but in six short years Rainbow Riches has been officially recognised as the UK's most popular video game, across all genres, ever. And it is not difficult to see why - the graphics are awesome and the graphics mesmerising!
Looking firstly at the graphics, it is clear that the Rainbow Riches designers put in a huge effort to ensure the theme has been correctly applied. The Irish-based premise, with leprechauns, rolling lush green hills and valleys, and of course, rainbows, has all been lovingly rendered.
The artwork of the game is perhaps one of its most endearing qualities - the green landscape really is lush with exquisite attention given to each blade of glass, and the rainbows really do seem to sparkle with vibrant colour.
Moving onto the gameplay and it is clear game of Rainbow Riches holds the player - there are so many ways to continue the game via the feature route or through a multiply chance of landing a return. The algorithm has been carefully set to give the maximum quality gameplay, yet there remains the chance to yield a fantastic return.
The main sub-theme of the game is the Pot of Gold at the end of the rainbow, and as you would expect it becomes the target of the player where, in one of the feature games, the prize is a Bronze, Silver or the elusive Gold pot.
The feature games are worth exploring and details can be found here; meantime, it is clear why Rainbow Riches has reached No.1 and is likely to stay there for the foreseeable future.
