Captain Dynamo is a side-view platform game released in 1993 for the MS-DOS platform. It was developed and published by Codemasters Software Company Limited. The game's premise involves the player character, a retired superhero named Captain Dynamo, attempting to retrieve a collection of diamonds stolen by the antagonist Austen van Flyswatter.

Players control Captain Dynamo through a series of vertically scrolling levels, navigating platforms and avoiding various traps. The primary objective in each stage is to collect diamonds, with a total of approximately fifty per level. A player's final score is directly influenced by the number of diamonds successfully gathered. Progression requires careful movement and timing, as some collectibles are positioned in hard to reach areas. Gameplay mechanics include the use of booster pads, which are essential for propelling the character to higher sections of a level and accessing certain diamonds.

The game structure consists of twelve levels in the MS-DOS version. Each level presents a distinct arrangement of obstacles and platforms that the player must traverse. The challenge involves planning routes to secure diamonds while managing the constant upward scroll of the screen. This creates a pace that emphasizes both exploration and precise platforming to complete each stage.
