You ran the timer out, sweet!  I played this one a lot as a kid too, but never ran out the timer.  Will give it a shot!

Yeah the dreaded gator jump got me once and the other death came when a pit opened and I mis-judged it lol

My copy of Pitfall should be here by tonight. Any tips for me? I've never played it before.

Avoid the gators mouths and the pits.... oh and the snakes and the scorpions and the fire too..... ?

Is there ever a reason to go down in the pit? I see a ladder in some screens...

That's not the pit, that's a downstairs section that you can and should go into. You will see what the pit is... Seriously though, you roam through the screens trying to survive and grab as much loot 'treasure' that you can find. Fun game.... ?

Played a few games with my son just now. It's pretty fun! We weren't able to locate any treasure though. I can see how this one basically invented a genre.

Just keep advancing screens and you will see treasure.  Go left your right (left is easier), and you'll see them.

This is my highest ever score (since I've never played this version), I survived for nearly 90 seconds (I have *way* more time left on the clock than that other score that was posted above!), and it is impossible that I will be beat in this game.

 

Any comments to the contrary will be considered a direct attack and will prompt me to wreak havoc on the forums in retaliation. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What? Too soon? ;-)

That is such truth. That's why I kept thinking I needed to back track!

I seem to recall the game being all about how far you can get before time runs out.  Much less about survival than speed, although obviously a lack of survival will result in scores like mine.

I just learned that every screen you advance via underground tunnel is equivalent to three screens up above... ?

I had totally forgotten that.  That does ring a bell in that I thought I had previously memorized where you should go underground, where you should come up, and the occasional bit of backtracking to get a bypassed treasure.  


Crap, now you've got me totally overthinking things.  ?
