Magical Rainbow by Crossen Creations is a something like Candy Land: a spinner, move to the first occurrence of that color, first to reach the end of the path wins.
It differs from Candy Land in a few ways:
- The board and pieces are magnetic.
- A leprechaun moves around the board as you do, occasionally dragging you off to some corner of the board.
- As you land on spaces, you collect gold coins, which you can use – if you choose – to escape from an area of the board if the leprechaun dragged you there (something like a Get Our of Jail Free card).
- The pieces flip over to reveal the alphabet and numbers, which can be used on the magnetic board as a play set.
- You can vary the game piece locations, and difficulty, when you set up the game.
