It's about time Dizzy came back. They need to re-release all the old games as a collection.
Dizzy: Prince of the Yolkfolk rereleased this December
HD version of 1991 2D adventure title coming soon to Android, iPhone, and iPad.
Gamers in Europe are well acquainted with the classic adventure title Dizzy: Prince of the Yolkfolk, the sixth game in the Dizzy adventure series developed by Codemasters. Fans of the series now have an egg-cellent reason to rejoice, as the publisher has announced that an HD version of the game will hit store shelves on December 9 on iOS and Android platforms.
The new version of the game retains the structure and level design of the original, but with remastered graphics and a reworked interface and touch-screen controls. Other details about the port have yet to be announced.
Dizzy: Prince of the Yolkfolk was a 2D adventure title that saw players control the anthropomorphic egg Dizzy to collect items and solve puzzles to rescue his beloved Daisy from her oppressors. The game was originally released in 1991 on the Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, DOS, NES, and Amiga.
