This game really takes me back to a happy time in school in the 1980s, but now I can see that most or all this game's original elements (except the old graphics) would still seem solid in the modern day. To be less confusing, Montezuma's Revenge not only brings nostalgia, but it is still a very good game! :)I have encountered a major control issue though. Some playing sessions but not all, when running left or right, often my character goes into a glitched mode where if he jumps he jumps straight up even though he's running, and if I remove my finger he just keeps running, usually off the edge of a platform. Some sessions this happens over and over, while other sessions this doesn't happen at all.

I'd like to write a long heart felt review but it is too emotional to do because this game means so much to me, I'll just start crying. All I can say is ..... THANK YOU Edit: I like the new updates. This is the first video game I ever played, back in the 80’s on the computer. This game is friggin iconic, a legend, it paved the way for so many games to come. How crazy is it that this is actually available? Thank you to all involved. Lastly, I don’t think it’s physically possible to beat every level!!! I might be the first, but it will take years. Haha2nd edit: wow I didnt see this coming! Great new update, the modern version is awesome looking, big changes. Plays a little smoother too. Wootwoot

Its a platformer spelunking game where the object is to collect as many treasures as possible while avoiding creatures and making it to the bottom of the level and the treasure room. The game was originally released in 1983 on various platforms and this game is identical with a few enhancements. Retro mode is included to be able to play the game as it was originally (which looks like the computer based version C64). Controls aren't that bad either.

I want to start with that this game is pretty cool and neatly authentic to the original game back in the 80’s.The problem I have with this game is that it is not always playable. Although the initial menu screen typically displays fine, any selection made on it to start the game frequently causes the screen to flip and the game to start so that less than half of the game and the controls are visible.The two stars reflect the fact that when this game is playable, it is a well done effort to bring the original game to iOS. The only thing I would wish for, so far, is the ability to slow down the running speed of the game. Currently a lot of the objects (skulls, floors, etc) move considerably faster than in the original version.
