Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure Super Nintendo
Bringing the 1982 platforming classic to '90s home consoles, The Mayan Adventure puts players in the role of Harry Jr. as he searches the Mayan ruins for his father, the original Pitfall Harry.
Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure is a 2D side-scrolling platformer developed and published by Activision for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (in conjunction with Redline Games) and Sega Genesis in late 1994.
A sequel and re-imagining of the 1982 Atari 2600 game Pitfall!, The Mayan Adventure stars Harry Jr., son of Pitfall Harry (the protagonist from the original game). When the elder Harry is captured off-screen by the dreaded warrior spirit Zakelua, it's up to the younger Harry to journey through the Mayan ruins to search for him.
The game is known for its smooth animation (as one of the final projects of animation studio Kroyer Films, best known for the 1992 film FernGully: The Last Rainforest) and soundtrack by Soundelux Media Labs. It also contains numerous references to the original game, including a playable version as a hidden easter egg.
