Pitfall 2 - Lost Caverns - Tandy TRS-80
| Pitfall II was the first sequel to the smash, cross platform hit Pitfall from Activision (The Coco never had the first one officially; unofficially, Ken Kalish's Trapfall is a very close clone). The biggest difference with Pitfall II is that you are no longer limited to horizontal motion (well, some vertical movement was allowed in the original, but only within the same screen)... there are literally dozens of smooth scrolling, vertical screens to go through, as well as the traditional horizontal screens. Like the original, you are trying to collect treasures, and dodge various dangers. Expanding on the original is underwater areas, and "checkpoints", which allow you to sort of save your position somewhat, without having to go through the whole maze again. |
