Not your father's Pitfall

pitfall_boxshot.jpgMy kids have no idea why I think this is cool, but that's because they never played the original. Pitfall: The Lost Expedition promises more than 50 levels of action and puzzle-solving adventures.

The game challenges players to swing, fight, climb and crawl through multiple types of treacherous South American environments including lush jungles, dark tombs, ancient Incan ruins and glacial mountains. Pitfall: The Lost Expedition also includes favorite features from the earlier Pitfall games such as vine swinging, gaping chasms, crocodiles and scorpions.
Now available for GameCube, PS2 and Xbox. Rated "E" for Everyone.

Update: Pitfall was a hit this weekend with my son (10) and his cousin (13).
