Dizzy and the Yolkfolk have outraged the Evil Wizard Zaks and he's cast a sinister spell which has sent them to the land of personality. Dizzy can choose who to rescue but to be a true hero, he'll have to save all his friends. Denzil thought he was cool and ended up in the Land of Ice. Left out chill out! Dylan spent most of his time with his head in the clouds, and that's exactly where he found himself stranded high and dry! Grand Dizzy was old and touch senile, his fate was to be cast into Cuckoo Land trapped by clocks and giant teddy bears. Daisy was Zaks' greatest prize and he kept her close to him in his Castle Dungeon protected by his best henchmen.

One day, Grand Dizzy was putting the finishing touches to his brand new Toy Making Invention. "Just got to tighten this last nut and we're ready... oooOOOh, eekk!" shouted Grand Dizzy as the spanner slipped and he fell to the floor. "UURGH!!" moaned Grand Dizzy, "I've got a CRACKING EGGACHE, not I'll never finish testing my new Toy Making Machine. Whatever shall I do?!" "Don't Worry!", replied Dizzy, "We'll help you!" So Dizzy, Daisy, Denzil, Dylan, Dozy and Dora helped Grand Dizzy to the machine and manned their stations. Whilst Dizzy grabbed the conveyor belt controller, the others went upstairs and threw the magic shapes down the shutes. "Click, Crunch... Cough, Splutter", the machine kicked into action! "noooOOh, SLOW down...! Hang on...! Too fast...!, cried Dizzy, but the others couldn't hear him. The toy making invention just kept getting faster...

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 - splooosh! - 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!!

Dizzy and Daisy were out in the enchanted forest picking blue berries for a pie they were making for a dinner party.
+
"These berries aren't very big!" muttered Dizzy plucking the minuscule fruit from a bush.
+
"I can see some bigger ones over there" said Daisy.
+
Dizzy trotted over to the bush "These are still too small", he said forlornly, "we're never going to get enough!"
+
"How about these?" pointed out Daisy wandering yet further into the wood.
+
before they knew it the two eggs had wandered far into the forest. But the time they reached the banks of the Great Torrent River, the two knew they had become hopelessly lost.
+
Suddenly Daisy heard a twig snap. Dizzy span around to be confronted by Rockwart the Troll and a gang of ferocious looking henchtrolls.
+
"I have you now little Egg!" breathed Rockwart in his most sinister voice.
+
Quick as a flash Dizzy grabbed Daisy's hand and the pair ran desperately toward the river.
+
"Hee HEE HEE!" laughed Rockwart manically as the trolls moved in ever closer.
+
But Dizzy had a plan - "Jump in here Daisy" he cried as he somersaulted towards and abandoned apple barrel. "We've escaped" he shouted back to the trolls in glee. Daisy screamed because Daisy could only see what was in front of them...

The Dizzy arcade game series re-used the Dizzy character from the Dizzy adventures.
Most of them were created just for fun during coding the adventures, or as sub games of these.
