Fantastic Dizzy is an adventure game released for the Commodore 64, developed by Oliver Twins and published by Codemasters.

It is part of the Dizzy series; on the C64 you can also try Fantasy World Dizzy, Treasure Island Dizzy and Dizzy – The Ultimate Cartoon Adventure. The series also appears on other systems with Fantastic Dizzy (NES) and Fantastic Dizzy (Genesis). Oliver Twins also made Professional Ski Simulator, Ghost Hunters and Super Robin Hood for the C64.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you've played the C64 hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want fast action rather than puzzles and exploration
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Fantastic Dizzy is like

Adventure games focus on exploration, story and puzzle-solving rather than combat. Progress comes from examining your surroundings, collecting items and figuring out how they fit together.

Tip for newcomers: Classic adventure games can be cryptic by modern standards. Take notes, try everything on everything, and save before risky choices.
