Notes
TypeText
RemarksZXSR: Crash cover game (65 - Jun 89), (89 - Jun 91)
PublicationAccording to The Oliver Twins, Code Masters initially disliked the game, but agreed to distribute it due to the success of the twins' previous games. Although the game did not sell particularly well, it generated a loyal following. As a result they decided to produce a second part (Treasure Island Dizzy) which was an immediate success.
RemarksSame parts of the poem "The Green Eye of the Yellow God" by Milton Hayes are referenced in many of the text banners that can be found around the map, and often provide some cryptic clues to the player.
