Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure is a platform game developed and published by Activision in 1994. It is part of the Pitfall series, and is notable for being one of the few games to be released on both the Sega 32X and Sega Mega CD Sega Mega Drive add-ons, as well as being a stand-alone title for the standard Mega Drive system. It was also released for the Atari Jaguar, Super Nintendo, Windows and more recently the Game Boy Advance. The Mega Drive version has since been released on the Wii's Virtual Console service.
In the game the player controls Pitfall Harry Jr., the son of the hero from the first game(s) who must rescue his father. The original Atari 2600 Pitfall! game is also hidden and can be played.
The game was highly praised for its detailed graphics and smooth animations, similar to Aladdin. Though the 32X version of the game has a larger colour palette, it is let down by slower framerates. The Mega CD version, as well as including a CD audio soundtrack, contains full motion video sequences.
