Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure (CD)

Le jeu

Activision has spent the better part of the past two decades trying to recapture the magic (and the sales) of the original Pitfall! To say that it’s been mostly unsuccessful would be something of an understatement, with most of the games that have appeared bearing the famous moniker have fallen far, far short of David Crane’s 1982 classic. Probably the only title in recent years to come close was The Mayan Adventure, a game that had players assume the role of Pitfall Harry’s son on a mission to rescue his famous father. Activision apparently saw what it had, and it went on to release versions of its wayward hit on every console under the sun.
