Pitfall

Another SNES platform conversion, like Busby, but this time a lot more of a success. Basically a sequel to the ancient Pitfall, brought out on the VCS and 8bit machines. The graphics are about as good as 2D cartoon animation can get, with lovely lush sprites and backgrounds. Animation is excellent, while the enemies (if dissapointingly small) are varied enough. Gameplay is pretty much spot on. Your character leaps and jumps between some exquisite backdrops, sometimes swinging about on vines. Er, just like the original Pitfall then. It's a bit samey when played along side Flashback, and you begin to suspect that they were seperated at birth. Definitely the better of the two, and without doubt one of the best platformers on the Jaguar.

Zogging Hell Rating: 8/10


Cheats

Classic 2600 Pitfall: On the main menu select 'Info' and then press the C button 26 times, followed by down on the joypad.

In the game get this by: On the Copan Level, get to the very top platform, then run and jump to the left to land on a ledge with a 2600 scorpian on it. Enter the door to get to another ledge with another scorpian, a lock and a silver bar. Go left to hit a wall, jump up and down until you are catapulted in the air. Aim to right while in the air and land in a small room with a pretty vortex. Enter.
