Fantasy World Dizzy
Fantasy World Dizzy was the first Dizzy game to have been available for the PC. Third in the series overall, Fantasy World Dizzy is a fiendish platformer that many consider the most difficult in the entire series. This time Daisy, Dizzy's girlfriend, has been kidnapped by the Evil King's trolls and sent to Wizard Weird's Tallest Tower, while Dizzy himself was dragged away and thrown into the deepest, darkest, dankest of the Kings Dungeons in the bowels of Fantasy World. Your job, of course, is to escape.
As in other arcade adventures in the series, gameplay in Fantasy World Dizzy consists of collecting and using items to solve puzzles, as well as platform-style action, such as dealing with the fire- breathing dragon. This is the first Dizzy game to feature his friends the Yolkfolk, and you'll need their help to succeed. There are also some mysterious creatures to watch out for, such as hawks, crocodiles and the armorog. Although this is the only Dizzy game for PC that offers only PC speaker, the music is still quite good for its time. Overall, a nice, pleasant arcade adventure that just might get PC gamers to take a look at this quirky Spectrum classic. Thumbs up!
