Free download of Treasure Island Dizzy for PC @ Codemasters!


320°

FOUND BY: hodsey77 5 months, 3 days ago

In my quest for Dizzy games for my Spectrum, I came across this - almost as good as the Spectrum version ;-)

Free download of the full Treasure Island Dizzy game from the Codemasters website:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Download: Treasure Island Dizzy
Download Type: Etoy
Date Uploaded: 15th December 2004
File Size: 2.7mb
TREASURE ISLAND DIZZY

PROLOGUE:

Dizzy was looking forward to the round-the-world cruise. When he told the other yolkfolk about the good deal he found, they wondered just what lay ahead of him...

Dizzy enjoyed the cruise at first. The captain, Long John Silver, was a lovely old bloke with a kindly manner, good at insulting and degrading the fare-paying punters. He was well balanced - he had parrot on one shoulder and a chip on the other.

Dizzy thought he would organize a game of cricket on the aft deck. In a fit of blinding stupidity he used LJ's spare leg collection as makeshift stumps, and when they were lost overboard he was made to walk the plank! That was how he came to find himself gently poaching on the silent, sun-kissed beach of a seemingly deserted island... He had to somehow find a way back to the yolkfolk and lodge his compensation claim with the travel agent...

CONTROLS:

ACTION KEYBOARD
Walk Left Z
Walk Right X
Jump Left Shift/Left Ctrl
Pick Up/Drop/Read ENTER/RETURN
Pause P (NOTE: pressing ANY other key whilst paused will unpause the game)
Music/Fx M
Quit Q (Returns to title screen)

HINTS:

Be careful in the water - everyone knows that eggs are air breathers!
Dont wind up fried.....be careful of fire!
The wildlife is dangerous, dizzy looks good enough to eat...
The old chest makes a good step in the right place...

The are two ways to complete the game:
SOLUTION 1 - Tricky, find a way off the island and back to the yolkfolk
SOLUTION 2 - Very tricky, there are THIRTY pieces of gold hidden on the island, find these before making your escape... some of them are VERY well hidden!

Good luck!

TECHNICAL:

CCS 64 FEATURES:

A useful feature of CCS C64 is that it allows you to save your progress in the game at any point. To do this, press F9 to access the menu and select STATE. You can Save and Load from this screen.

KNOWN ISSUES:

This PC version of Treasure Island Dizzy uses the CCS-C64 emulator. It is recommended that default settings ONLY be used when running the game, as changing the display/sound settings is known to cause issues with the program.

It is known that running other applications whilst running Treasure Island Dizzy can cause issues: it is therefore recommended that you close any other applications before loading the game.

Codemasters will not provide any customer support on this free download.

Gotta admit, it's my least favourite Dizzy game... but it's still good

Now, if it were Fantasy World or Magicland Dizzy, that would be ace!

If i remember correctly, pausing the game and then typing ICANFLY gives you (yes, you guessed it) the ability to fly at any time.

....fly my pretties, fly!

This game had the best music ever on the Spectrum (128k). By the legendary David Whittaker.

Also it was maybe the first one I played that had a speech sample! Way back when.

Now it's on PC though if you save the game you're missing the challenge of it. I bet I can still remember what plants/fences the hidden coins are behind.
