Mahou Kishi Rayearth 2nd: The Missing Colors

About

Mahou Kishi Rayearth 2nd: The Missing Colors is a straightforward RPG where you track down a thief who’s looted the kingdom of Cefiro’s colors. The game splits its action across three distinct structures, each a self-contained dungeon where you fight enemies, collect gear, and solve basic puzzles. Combat is turn-based with a focus on elemental weaknesses and character-specific abilities. The Game Boy’s hardware limits the scope but keeps the pacing tight, with progression centered on clearing each area to restore color and advance the story. The game leans heavily on its anime/manga source material, which gives it charm but little else. It’s a brief experience, averaging 10, 15 hours, and while the pixel art is simple, it mirrors the aesthetics of 90s handheld RPGs like Dragon Quest. Community ratings are mixed, some praise its nostalgic appeal, while others call it forgettable. If you’re a genre completist or Rayearth fan, it’s a curious relic of a bygone era.
