The creators of the series, the Oliver Twins outsourced the video game company Big Red Software to design and develop this game.
The game in November 1992 was enhanced and re-released with the illfated Aladdin Deck Enhancer under the title, Dizzy The Adventurer. The title was then released in 1993 as part of The Excellent Dizzy Collection.
The game interface and mechanics resemble those of Magicland Dizzy, discarding changes introduced in the fifth game.
In November 2011, it was announced that the game was being released on the Android and iOS platforms with an HD remake of the game.[1][2]
