Professor Fizzwizzle is part of those early 2000s PC games like PopCap games that were not made for a big adventure or what but to spend a good time solving puzzles, having the best highscore, and finishing the game under 10 hours. Honestly? I like that.
This game was made by a small team whose lead developper went on to found Brace Yourself Games and create Crypt of the Necrodancer. For what this game is, they sure did well as a first game!
It's wacky, it's aimed for kids, it doesn't have a big story plot, but it will make your brain work harder than you think to finish those levels. With more than 130 levels in total, you will have enough to tell yourself "holy sh*t this is a nightmare", look up the solution, and feel like an idiot.
Also the professor has moves.
Maybe I'm too nostalgic over this game I played as a kid to treat it fairly, but I like this game.
