Montezuma’s Revenge
278K plays 1984 #Action#Platform
Montezuma's Revenge is a platform game for the Atari 8-bit computers, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Apple II, ColecoVision, Commodore 64, IBM PC (as a self-booting disk), and ZX Spectrum (as Panama Joe). It was designed and programmed by Robert Jaeger and published by Parker Brothers in 1984. The game's title references a colloquial expression for diarrhea contracted while visiting Mexico.
In 1988, a port was published for the Master System, which retains the basic gameplay and level structure, but with improved graphics, sound, and additional features.
A substantially updated version entitled Montezuma's Revenge - Director's Cut was released in 2025. This version updates stages, added new features, and allowed the player to fight King Montezuma as a final boss.
