Dizzy by CodemastersDizzy was exploring the haunted forest, looking for berries, flowers and a piece of wood with which to make a club when he uncovered a mystifying stone slab. Brushing the dirt asside he was able to read (after a great deal of head scratching) the faint inscriptions. The Avawiffovee Potion Dizzy remembered his Eggfather had spoken of such a potion, 'it is the only way to rid our land of athletes foot, and it can also be used to destroy the Evil Wizard Zaks.` Dizzy trembled with fear as he recalled those words. Zaks brought fear to the village, he cast spells that turned people old, made men blind and caused it to rain every Sunday afternoon during Cricket. Dizzy was determinded to put a stop to all this, he would be the hero of the yolkfolk. He read on. "Fill a potion bottle with cooked leprechauns wig, clouds silver lining, Vampire dux feather and some troll brew - cook the potion and throw it at Zaks to dissolve his reign." He covered it up and quickly made ready to liberate the land of Katmandu. Promotional Posters & AdvertisementsNo marketing material found for Dizzy.

"My favourite Dizzy game. Often overlooked, but this started off what was possibly the best game franchise to hit the CPC. The graphics were nice and detailed, the music is addictive and the sound effects go well with the game. I Code Masters masterpiece." - woody.cool
woody.cool's rating : 8/10
"A classic arcade adventure, damn fine game. Excellent music, fun to play and some tricky puzzles to work out. Graphics are good and it has such a great atmosphere to it. Well worth playing" - khisanth
khisanth's rating : 7/10
"Classic! Some mistakes that were corrected in later games, like not being able to continue if you break the bridge or falling into some trees makes you die until you get a game over.
But they got a lot right in this game, must be why they made so many
Better music than c64 and speccy versions :)" - Andyuk
