Fantastic Dizzy is a platform game developed by Codemasters, and was released as part of the firm's Dizzy series.

Fantastic Dizzy is the seventh "main" release in the Dizzy series, whose roots date back to 1987. The vast majority of Dizzy games missed Sega systems, however the sixth game, Dizzy Prince of the Yolkfolk, retitled Dizzy the Adventurer, was released as part of The Excellent Dizzy Collection for the Sega Game Gear.
