![]() Any one still reading? Over the age of ten? Well, get lost then. So that's the people who think all the Dizzy games are all the same and far too easy out of the way. During the series the (slaying area map may have become a little larger, the graphics a shade prettier, and your sprite a little cute-er but has anything major changed? Have any new concepts or ideas been employed? No, not really. Let's not pay any attention to any Tom, Dick or Harry who tells you that there has been little improvement over the six games either. This in turn could be a problem - how long really before you finish the game? Hours rather than days, maybe. This lack of opportunities for death, the ease of puzzles and overall familiarity can only account for Dizzy's instant playability and even more instant addictiveness. The only method of death is neatly provided by the arcade element, but this, as ever, is low and restricted to timing your way over the occasional snake or bird. So what does this mean?

(It took me ages to figure this out). the broken generator and the fact that Dora's electricity keeps going off? The answer is most probably: probably. Would you have thought to give Denzil the screwdriver after he tells you that he has lost his tools? And would you have fathomed the connection between the spanner. ![]() ![]() Other people may try to fob you off with allegations that the puzzles are totally obvious anyway, with no suitable improvement being made in this latest escapade. Dizzy Twelve and and what do you do? You still pick up and use objects, walk around and somersault over things. ![]() Dizzy One what did you do? You walked around, picked up and used objects, and somersaulted over things. “There's a lot that can be done with the arcade adventure, yet the Dizzy series hardly seems to make a scratch on the surface of the genre. “They're all the same," they'll point out. ine only Our old pal Dizzy stars in His 'twelfth game - unbelievable, isn't it?
