Description
Pitfall! is a genre-defining adventure platformer that helped set the template for exploration-based action on early consoles. Set in a treacherous jungle, it’s packed with iconic hazards—swinging vines, rolling logs, pits, swampy traps, and snapping crocodiles—while you race to grab treasures and keep moving. The level design encourages learning routes and building confidence, turning early stumbles into smooth, stylish runs as you master timing and spacing. Its visuals are instantly recognizable, and its fast, arcade-like structure makes it easy to revisit for quick sessions or long score hunts. A true cornerstone title for any retro collection, carrying that unmistakable early-80s adventure vibe in every screen. (Atari 2600 cartridge; original hardware required.)
