Dizzy Down the Rapids is an arcade style action video game, that was published in 1991 by Codemasters for the Amstrad CPC, Spectrum and Commodore 64.
The game involves Dizzy riding barrels down a river avoiding obstacles and enemies. The game was based on the game play from an arcade game titled Toobin'. The C64 version was originally developed by Paul Black. The C64 version was originally a clone of Toobin called 'Toobin Turtles'. When the game was taken to Codemasters for consideration, it was rebranded to take advantage of the Dizzy character.
