Super Pitfall. When I clicked that Play button, I had no idea what I was in for (I didn't see the AVGN episode yet). I thought it would be a decent game at least, but this... ugh. I guess you want the actual review now. Fine. I'll give it to you, so all you innocent young gamers don't waste their Viz. Graphics:1
This game's graphics are terrible. Pitfall Harry looks like some bad ripoff of Luigi, and while most of the graphics are colorful, they are repetitive as looking at a slideshow of one picture 1000 times. Also, the edge of the screen glitches sometimes, I see random sprites at the edge of the screen and when I keep walking, they disappear! Overall, graphics gets a 1. Sound:1 The music. Oh my god. It is terrible, and the constant looping drives me nuts. The only other song is when you're in some random cave-dungeon thing, and it's still terrible. That's all I have to say about this.
Addictiveness:1 If you think this game is addictive, you are definitely messed up around in the proverbial attic (your head). What with cheap 1-hit deaths, random object placement (as in, you need to jump everywhere), and enemies you can't even hit, this is about as addictive as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Story:1 The story in this game is virtually nonexistent. It's there, but it makes no sense. You just have to rescue some random person, that's it.
Depth:10 This is meant in the BAD way. The items are in the same place every time you play, and as if that's not enough, they're INVISIBLE until you jump in a random place, then it appears. Again, as if THAT'S not enough, you can play the WHOLE GAME AGAIN-exactly the same, just different item placement, which makes it all the more annoying.
Difficulty:10 Again, meant in the bad way. This game is practically IMPOSSIBLE, what with the aforementioned 1-hit deaths and impossible to reach enemies. Climbing is a real chore, because of all the stupidly placed waterfalls. The controls are just a joke. Don't even bother with this game.
OVERALL:1.7 This game is a pile of horse dung. From the graphics, to the sound, to the controls, this game is like an endless turd that curls around straight into your mouth. Don't play this game. Please, for your sake, just go away from this page. Thank you, good night.
