I won't beat around the bush - this is the worst Dizzy game ever. It makes eating soup with a fork look easy! Read Review
A very simple arcade game that has some addictiveness but not nearly as much as its predecessors. Read Review
Relies tremendously on luck. The bubbles emerge at random, and the only way to rise on them is by jumping on a slow one or leaping into space and hoping for a last one to come up and catch you from behind. Read Review
Dizzy's in trouble - again! Dizzy was taking a boat journey to visit his girlfriend, Daisy and present her with a glittering pearl necklace (the old romantic). But! Catastrophe strikes as Dizzy discovers he's not on a passenger boat at all! It's a pirate ship, captained by none other than the evil Captain Blackheart!
"Yikes!" yelled Dizzy as Blackheart snatched the pearls from his clutches! Blackheart hollered, "Avast there! Splice the mainbrace! And chuck this land-lubber over the side!". With that, Dizzy was made to walk the plank and - sploosh! - into the ocean he fell!
As Dizzy sank into the mysterious ocean caverns there was only one thing for it - head for the surface and *fast*!!
To rise to the surface Dizzy can jump onto the bubbles rising from the floor of the deep caverns. Leap on top of a bubble, stay balanced and Dizzy floats towards the surface - but look out, that bubble could burst at any moment!
By leaping onto bubbles and ledges Dizzy can reach the surface and leap onto land!
Some ledges house oysters from which Dizzy collects pearls! If he gets enough he can make a new pearl necklace and win Daisy's love!
Ledges on the cavern wall make handy resting places for Dizzy.
Danger lurks in the caverns. Beware of the ocean creatures which can drain Dizzy's energy.
And don't run out of oxygen either!
O - Walk left, P - Walk right, SPACE - Jump
You may use a joystick if you prefer.
You can combine the controls for diagonal jumping.
