About the game

3D Pitfall is a video game released in 1995 for DOS. VG90 lists it as a reference record so the title stays discoverable alongside the thousands of other releases that defined the leap into 3D.

the leap into 3D was a period of rapid change for the medium: polygons, CD-ROM storage and analogue control were rewriting what games looked and felt like. Placing 3D Pitfall in that timeline shows where it sat as the industry evolved.

Why it matters

The value of a record like this is context: the leap into 3D produced far more games than the handful everyone remembers, and polygons, CD-ROM storage and analogue control were rewriting what games looked and felt like. An archive earns its keep by preserving the long tail, not just the hits.
