Dizzy to the rescue! Outwit Zaks' court jesters, bumble bees, clockwork mice and more in the Land of Personality. Megafeatures and fantastic fun in the incredibly playable action packed arcade puzzle game!

Dizzy and the Yolkfolk band had just finished their gruelling tour of Yolkland and they were all ready for a holiday. Unfortunately, [they] couldn't decide where to go and a huge argument began to rage. I say unfortunately because it woke Zaks the evil wizard. He got into a huge temper and cast spells left right and centre ...

Denzil thought he was cool so he was sent to Iceland.

Dylan always had his head in the clouds and was banished to Cloudland.

Grand Dizzy was getting a bit old now so he was sent to Cuckooland!

Daisy was trapped into Zaks dark dungeon.

Dizzy went wild. He had to get the yolkfolk back together. He had forgotten to tell them about the farewell gig he had planned down at the local club!!

THE GAME

The game is divided into four levels, each more devastating than the last. Point Dizzy's glove to the required destination and press fire.

Weave around the stationary blocks and push the sliding ones into the approaching henchman to get all the fruit. Complete five levels and free a friend!

There are special features which float down to help, but sometimes they will hinder. A special bonus score is awarded if you can get the fruit in the flashing order.

After every level there is a special slippery slidy bonus section. When Dizzy starts in a direction he is unable to stop until he hits something - it's that slippery. Plan your moves well - there aren't any henchmen but you are against the clock.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Game crashes as soon as you reach 80,000 points. This is due to a LDI instruction running in conjunction with a DJNZ, i.e. the LDI decrements the counter to zero then it has to cycle another 256 times resulting in the crash soon after. Every 10,000 points you get an extra life upto a maximum and the error occurs when it tries to print the life onto the screen. A simple fix is to disable printing it, so you will not see that you have received an extra life every 10,000 points although you will most certainly have still gotten it.
