Pitfall - 6.5
For the longest time I thought the game was basically collecting as many treasures as you can before the time runs out. I didn't realize you could actually beat it (doesn't mean you will beat it since its actually quite challenging to collect all the treasures within the time limit). Pitfall was one of the first games I've ever played. While it was fun back then, it is barely comparable to even the NES-era platformers.

Anticipating quite a few lower votes until we get out of the stone age games like Pitfall and Pong...

With that said, 6/10. It was a decently fun game and that's about all I have to say.

I'm rating this on entertainment value, and not on historical significance.

I don't know if I've ever played this game. I may have at one point.

One of my first games as well, I'm sure this and the Atari are still buried in my attic somewhere.
