Goodness gracious, do the the graphics ever look good!
(Sleepy Hollow with the sleeping egg looks particularly sumptuous. )

I dream of a C64 game that looks just like this but with smooth scrolling instead of flip-screen.

That game would look superior to 99% of all NES-games.

I must have been the only one who thought the Dizzy series were just the same game with slightly different locations! :cry:

A very good game but I still can't understand why they decided to use Spectrum-ish graphics. C64 could do better!

I agree, this game is the absolute top! And the music is sweet as... Something very very sweet!

The first Dizzy game I bought, and the best. Enchanting storyline, great puzzles and the right level of difficulty in controlling Dizzy - (bounce bounce roll die, your fault sort of level), never liked, became infuriated or played any other Dizzy game quite so much. Bring back Dizzy!! (in a 2D format) :P

Just simply the BEST Dizzy game in the series :D

I had this on the Amiga 1200 and was probably my favourite game after the much newer 'Sleep walker' I never finished it believe it or not as I was only about seven and a little stupid but I have spent the last 3 weeks trying to download a version that will work on my P. C. And I won't stop til I succeed. It's definatley worth looking for

This was on of the first C64 games I ever got! It started my addiction of Dizzy, bar far the best of all the dizzy games!
Lee Wadiun 2003-02-23
This is by far the best dizzy game. Brilliant puzzles, amazing story and egg-selant characters. I have always been a big dizzy fan and thats all thanks to this game. It was the only game I played everytime I booted up the old C64(heck I still play it now!) 9/10

The pinnacle of the Dizzy series in my honest opinion. Great puzzles and a really enjoyable collection of screens makes Magic Land Dizzy one of my favourite C64 games.

In Magic Land Dizzy you are shocked to find evil Wizard Zaks is back and up to mischief again. Not only has he enslaved a kingdom, he's done a dis-service to all the other members of the yolkfolk. You must reverse his bad deeds and defeat him once and for all if you are to see your beloved Daisy again!
