I have this game for the PC and it sweet!! I had it since I was in 2nd grade (5 years now) and it is so awesome. There are great levels and it is really addictive. Not only that it is really fun. It is one of the best made platform games there is. So if you are looking for an excellent platform/adventure game, this is definitely the one for you!

What makes it better is that I have a code for it on this page!!!

If being a game was cool this game would be Miles Davis!

This game is so cool. I love it. It keeps me busy at work, when I have a LOT of down time. I am an anthropologist, and it is good to see that a video game company is actually trying to be accurate (for those of you who may not know Copan is actually an ancient Mayan archeological site). You should buy this game right now.

very impressive

This is one of the great gbaa games ever. One of the best graphics for GBA and more. This should have a average of 5 stars. The gameplay is interesting, exciting, and fun.Thats why I call it one of the greatest gba games ever.

Not bad, but not that good either.

There will be two things that you will notice immediately...1) It is a very dark game. Not in the sense of genre, but in the sense of literal darkness. The game is very hard to see. And 2)there are NO saves or passwords.

To solve both of these problems you will need a game light and some cheat codes. Once you overcome these two obsticles, you will start to enjoy the game. One thing about using the cheat to get to different levels is that the area of the screen which shows you how many points you have accumulated will have its place taken by coordinate numbers. These numbers were probably used to debug the game by the programmers. So you will not have a total score when playing with the level cheat. That's really too bad because you won't know just how well you did on each level.

As you play throught the levels, you will encounter some pretty fun gameplay. The levels are thought out well and some of the levels are pretty challenging. If you do not have good eye/hand coordination, you probably should pass on this game as you will really need to time your moves well.
There are "secret" levels that you will unlock and it will take you a while to understand how to defeat some of the bosses, but all in all, I would say this is a pretty fun game. One word of caution. If you already have a penchant against "platform" type games, you should steer away from this game as only those who like this sort of gameplay will enjoy it.

This is an awesome game!

Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure was good as a P.C version, and now, with it's arrival on GBA, it's even better, with sharper picture, clearer sound and impressive quality. The aim is to take Harry Jr. through the mayan jungles, forests, mines, temples and tooms, to find treasures, avoid crocodiles, tigers and other such nasties, and basically try to stay alive. It's a bit too difficult on some levels (Yaxchilan Lagoon and Toom of Palenque), but overall, it's good fun, with some added surprises and good-natured action. Kill those monkeys! Ha ha ha ha!

The game is alot of fun but the only thing wrong with the game is that the game doesn't save so if you advance to a another level and you get tired of playing the game and turn your gameboy off it won't save and when you turn the gameboy back on when you want to plat it , you'll start at the very beginning

not that bad

this game is actually a good game. I liked the oringinal version with harry. Onlythis is his son your playing. harry gets captured by a evil dude and you have to save him. the game has good enemies and gameplay but the is no beginners. it is hard at points. also the graphics are dark and u need good lighting. Oh yeah, the character sounds like a migit. But otherwise its a great game. I'd recommend it to any hardcore player.

this game is good

This game is a good game. The reason i gave it a 4 is because the athor lanchtitles are beter then this one. If you like Pitfall get it if do but you like the athor games get the athor games.

It is okay

It is kind of hard, but it has good graphics. The screen is a little dark but it is worthit to buy this game. If you are buying this game for your self, you should buy it, but if you are buying it for a gift you should rather get something else.
