Personal review

Evil lord - who has hoarded all the skittles in all the worlds (except for 5 remaining) - has sent out his minions to hunt out the girl (the protagonist) who found one of the lost skittles, sources of rainbows and magic, and it is up to you to find the rest and confront the evil lord so rainbows, skittles and magic can be restored to the worlds. And you have a sidekick who tries to be funny so hard at every turn he only ends up being aggravating.

Unplayable in a window (for first run or without walkthrough) as the game quirks up and skips many important dialogs, but it defaults to fullscreen anyway, so this isn't really harmful unless you insist on playing games in a window.
