Dizzy was exploring the haunted forest, looking for some berries, flowers and a piece of wood with which to make a club when he uncovered a mystifying stone slab. Brushing the dirt aside he was able to read (after a great deal of head scratching) the faint inscription 'The Avawiffovee Potion' Dizzy remembered his Eggfather had spoke of such a potion. 'It is the only way to rid our land of athletes foot, and it can also be used to destroy the Evil Wizard Zaks.' Dizzy trembled with fear as he recalled these words. Zaks brought fear to the village, he cast spells that turned people old, made men blind and caused it to rain every Sunday afternoon during Cricket. Dizzy was determined to put a stop to all this, he would be the hero of the yolkfolk. He read on... 'Fill a potion bottle with cooked Leprechauns wig, cloud silver lining, Vampire dux feather and some troll brew - cook the potion and throw it at Zaks to dissolve his reign.' He covered it up and quickly made ready to liberate the land of KATMANDU.

=== The Story === Dizzy was looking forward to the round-the-world cruise he'd booked for. 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 although there were far too many pirates on the ship, the Grog was watered down, and he didn't even know what a mainbrace was, let alone how to splice it! 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 - and he had a wooden leg which he acquired when he fell out of his pram when he was a kid. Anyhow, their quaint little man o' war found itself in still waters one sun-soaked afternoon, and Dizzy thought he would organise 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... == Dizzy III[[category: Fantasy World Dizzy == Games]] [[Imagecategory:fantasy world dizzy.jpg|thumb|Games 1987]] === General Information === <table><td><b>Title:</b></td> <td>Dizzy III - Fantasy World Dizzy</td><tr><td><b>Format:</b></td> <td>Amstrad CPC, Spectrum, Commodore 64, Amiga, Atari ST, PC DOS</td><tr><td><b>Release date:</b></td> <td>October 1988</td><tr><td><b>Publisher:</b></td> <td>Codemasters</td></table> === The Story === Dizzy & Daisy strolled through the enchanted forest without a care in the world...
