About Pitfall!
Pitfall! was released in 1982 by Activision for the Atari 2600, designed by David Crane. It became one of the best-selling games on the platform with over 4 million copies sold, and is widely considered a pioneering title in the side-scrolling platformer genre.
Players control Pitfall Harry as he navigates 255 screens of jungle terrain in search of 32 treasures. The game features swinging vines, rolling logs, scorpions, crocodiles, tar pits, quicksand, and underground passages — all rendered with remarkable detail for its era.
