that are "into cute platformer games and/or Bubble Bobble-like games". However, it was noted that the Sharp X68000 version was the best way to play the game, due to the addition of the save system, as well as the fact that it lets players continue anytime they liked. The Fairyland Story is often considered to be one of the spiritual predecessors to Bubble Bobble, mostly due to the similar gameplay mechanics. Gameplay elements and power-ups from The Fairyland Story would later be used in The NewZealand Story. A block formation that resembles Ptolemy appears as a hidden level in The NewZealand Story. A hidden world in Rainbow Islands, called Magical Island, is based on The Fairyland Story. The Worm enemy would later appear in both Don Doko Don and Don Doko Don 2.
