This is why there is an Activision today.

Graphics: 3 Sound: 2 Replay Value: 3 Notes: 1-player game; same as Atari 2600 version Screen Shots

Overall, while Pitfall! is an awesome game on the Atari 2600, it comes up short on Intellivision. Part of this is due to difficult control of Harry. Also, the graphics and sound seem to be nothing more than a straight port of the Atari game. Once you remember where the treasures are (or draw a map), this game doesn't hold up very well. Yes, it is a classic, and probably one of the reasons Activision still exists today. But still, I think this game could have been much better on the Intellivision.

	Title screen for Pitfall!.
	Somewhat disappointing port. Activision proved that the Intellivision could almost exactly reproduce the Atari 2600.
