Logic Puzzle Rainbow Town English translation
ロジックパズル レインボータウン · Rojikku Pazuru Reinbō Taun
Malenko's English localization of HUMAN's Saturn nonogram collection, so the menus and instructions around its 700-plus puzzles can finally be read.
What it is
Rainbow Town is a picross game at heart: fill the grid using the number clues, reveal a picture. The twist arrives later on, when puzzles are built from overlapping colour layers that combine into the final image, and the difficulty climbs steeply toward the end of the more than 700 puzzles.
What's translated
Malenko's patch puts the game's Japanese text into English, so the menus, explanations and in-game messages no longer stand between you and the puzzles. Version 1.2 is announced as the final release, after the first version in October 2024 and an update in December.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese Saturn disc, following the instructions on Malenko's SegaXtreme resource page, which is the official page for the release.
