The game involves Dizzy riding barrels down a river avoiding obstacles and enemies. It is based on the 1988 arcade video game Toobin'. The C64 version by Paul Black was originally called Toobin' Turtles. When the game was taken to Codemasters for consideration, it was rebranded to take advantage of the Dizzy character.
