PITFALL - REVIEW
This game is pretty amazing! Harry Jr. moves with excellent animation as he makes his way through the Mayan jungle. The smoothness of this game is unbelieveable! The sound is not bad, but not what you yould expect from Imagitec. Decent jungle tunes, but nothing special. The control is dead-on most of the time, but frusrtstes at times due to slow responsiveness. I would place this game right behind Rayman for Jaguar platformers. Rayman only wins because of the way you have to go back to each level more than once. The replayability in Rayman is a bit better, but other than that, this game is great! A must-buy for Jaguar-owning platform lovers!Reviewed by: Kevin J. Manne
