About this game
You play as a treasure hunter named Panama Joe, whose goal is to find an ancient treasure hidden by Aztec warrior deep inside catacombs.
But beware, the catacombs are a large maze inhabited by monsters.

Bouncing and rolling skulls, dancing spiders, disappearing and re-appearing chains and tons of fire await you.
You'll have to find many keys and unlock doors in order to reach your goal.
Panama Joe can jump and climb ladders, but doesn't have much to offer in terms of combat.
That's why the monsters in the game should be avoided: a collision with an enemy leads to a premature death.
He will also find amulets which make him invulnerable for a short time.
Except for the Master System version, they are activated directly when picked up.
The Atari 2600 port is a truncated version of the game and has only 24 rooms instead of 100.
The room layouts are more of an approximation of the original version than being a direct copy due to the limited power of the console.
The ZX Spectrum version has identical room layouts, however, the rooms are arranged differently and a few were removed.
The Normal Distribution port has both a retro and modern mode.
While the retro mode attempts to be faithful to the original version, the modern mode offers enhanced visuals plus has scrolling instead of the flip-screen of the original.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Montezuma's Revenge for Nintendo Entertainment System 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 Montezuma's Revenge 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 NES release dates back to 2022.

Condition matters a lot for collector value: loose (cartridge/disc only), complete-in-box (CIB, with original packaging and manual) and factory-sealed copies are tracked separately because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
