Okay, so Dizzy the Adventurer for the NES is... well, it's rough. Like, "why would anyone design a puzzle this way?" rough. Right off the bat, you're dumped into this world with zero clues, and the solutions make no sense. Who looks at a log, some straw, and a bucket of water and thinks, "Ah yes, I should set this on fire and then immediately put it out"? Not me. Definitely not me.

The controls are clunky, the menus feel like they were designed by someone who hates joy, and honestly? I gave up after the third "puzzle" because life’s too short. If you’re looking for a frustrating, cryptic mess, congratulations—you found it. Otherwise, steer clear.
