The Harpy's Eyrie?

[Ovum]

Hi everyone there!

I am an old fan of Dizzy since "Ultimate Cartoon Adventure" and recently I finished "Magicland Dizzy" again and saw something I didn't see before.

On Active Volcano, if you jump on the clouds you will eventually get into another screen in which you can see a ?guy? flying over some rocks. The screen is called "The Harpy's Eyrie".

Did anyone found any sense with this?

I think the Harpy's Eyrie was an excuse to stick an extra room in the 8-bit games

You can get to the top of that screen easily on the C64 version, but when you reach the top, The Harpy goes after you and you either lose a life or a lot of health (one of the two).

always thought this was a bit of a mystery. maybe a hidden puzzle or extra we haven't found yet? something different for the c64 version.

Or its a trick and is just meant to fool people into thinking theres more.

Thank you very much for solving my question. When I saw this for my first time I also was surprised for this... and even more because I couldn't reach that high (I play Dizzy on Spectrum).

Thanks again for your help!!

I just noticed that in the title bar isn't the egg on the right meant to be Daisy?

I always thought the yellow bit was a shadow, but it looks like hair and the egg does seem to have fuller lips than the one on the left!
