Tribute to an egg
I work for an it support company and I am always getting calls about faulty game systems from frantic customers who were clearly in the middle of bashing the boss! One of the more recent calls was for help with a fault on the SEGA master system, and here was me thinking that everyone has a PS3 or Xbox now. It was this call that made me start reminiscing about the good old days, remembering all the time spent on the SEGA swimming around as a dolphin in ECHO and fighting Robotnik with Sonic. And then something really started to bug me, I couldn’t remember the name of this game I used to play, one of my all time favourite’s as well. Then it hit me, the game was Dizzy Egg!!
So this is a tribute to Dizzy really and all the hours of entertainment he gave me, where would I have been without him. The all time best game involving Dizzy had to be Fantastic Dizzy. The storyline involved an evil wizard called Zak who kidnapped Dizzy’s girlfriend Daisy and hid her away in a castle in the clouds, and of course it was Dizzy’s job to rescue her (doesn’t it sound romantic). The game had a variety of locations and one of my favourites had to be Dizzy’s home which was a complex of Yolkfolk secret treehouses where all the other eggs like Dizzy lived.
The adventures Dizzy went on in the game were just classic, he only carried three items at a time so you did have to think logically, and his movements were definitely not very fluid so it wasn’t easy! And I suppose the worst thing was you couldn’t save the game so if you died you had to start right back at the beginning! But despite all that Dizzy Egg is still up there in my favourite games of all time. Thank you Dizzy you were certainly no ordinary egg!
