As with all Pitfall games, the focus is on skillful platforming and jumping.
Harry can perform multiple jumping variants (regular jump, long jump, high jump, and a short but high jump forward) which are performed together with the directional buttons and need to be mastered in order to beat the game.
Examples of typical obstacles are vines which need to be grabbed mid-air and floating snags where Harry can hook in his axe in.
This axe is also the only weapon which can be used to kill the enemies which drain Harry's life energy when their attacks are successful.
The premise is the same as in the PlayStation version , but the rest of the game is unrelated.
About Game Boy Color
The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.
Gamevaro tracks Pitfall: Beyond the Jungle for Game Boy Color with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Pitfall: Beyond the Jungle to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBC release dates back to 1998.
