Fantastic Dizzy for
Sega Genesis~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I originally played this on an older console I can't even remember what one... It was ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System, and the Sega Genesis, and I think even Game Gear had a port of this...
Pretty simple concept to this game.
You play as an egg named Dizzy, trying to rescue all your egg-friends and family from an evil Wizard. The game is strickly adventure, very little combat aside from a few Mini Games.
You take damage by hitting spiders and fireballs and what not. They're fruit throughout the whole world to recover food.
And 99 stars you have to collect to beat the game.
Run around find items, here's the catch tho, you can only hold three items at a time. So this is where alot of people were turned off by the game, since it requires alot of back-tracking. I have yet to actually beat the game, I got right to the end and the last boss killed me, and I lost patience to go through the whole game again.
Plus some of the puzzles are just outrageously frustrating if your low on health.
But the graphics are nice, the music is sweet, and I adore the storyline non the less. I miss games where it was just to rescue a dear princess or something, in this case tho it's your friends and family, ultimately to rescue your girlfriend. Or rather, Dizzy's girlfriend.
There was multiple games in the Dizzy Series all sharing the same idea, just minor plot changes. I believe this is the only Console Port tho.
