Adventures of Dizzy

Although Super Mario and Sonic are two huge icons of gaming, the fact that they are pets consoles, unique to their respective brands, has caused many gamers with computers, such as Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Amiga adopt other "idols".

Dizzy, an egg adventure, created by Oliver Twins , was the star in about 10 games, all multi platform and great successes in the genre, thus becoming the icon for those who did not have consoles.

Today Codemasters releases a remake of one of the best titles in the series - Dizzy: Prince Of The Yolkfolk - iOS and Android platforms at a budget price.

Not much to say about the game itself, since we are dealing with a title that works much the basis of nostalgia, to be sure the old fans of Dizzy the first to buy the game.

The gameplay is classic, we will not find or do not hit shots, but dialogue and use of objects to progress in the adventure. Dizzy: POTY is a very fun game that attracts by its simplicity and its puzzles.

It is worth not only to remember the price but if this is your case.

At a time when the Internet was still a long way, it was always good to get to the mailbox and have a letter from Club Nintendo.
