Montezuma’s Revenge, Atari 2600
The Atari 2600 port of Robert Jaeger‘s classic platform adventure, Montezuma’s Revenge, is a cut-down version of the original. It reportedly has half the number of rooms seen in the original Atari 8-bit version. That said: it’s still relatively authentic in its look and feel.
Donkey Kong, ZX Spectrum
The officially-licensed ZX Spectrum version of Donkey Kong was developed by Sentient Software for Ocean Software and was initially released in 1986.
Montezuma’s Revenge, Commodore 64
Robert Jaeger‘s classic platform game, Montezuma’s Revenge, was released for the Commodore 64 in 1984, and I believe that Jaeger did the conversion himself, so the game is pretty much identical to the Atari 8-bit original. At least, in terms of presentation.
Montezuma’s Revenge, Apple II
Parker Brothers published an Apple II version of Robert Jaeger‘s classic platform game, Montezuma’s Revenge, in 1984.

Developed by LucasArts and first published in 2002, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a third-person action game in which you play as Jango Fett, and it is also a prequel to the Star Wars film: Attack of the Clones.
Montezuma’s Revenge, Sega Master System
Developed by Utopia Software and published for the Sega Master System in 1989, Montezuma’s Revenge is a nice surprise for anyone looking for a decent 8-bit ‘hidden gem’ to play now. It’s a remake of Robert Jaeger‘s classic platform game, but with updated graphics, making them look more realistic than the chunky versions seen in the Atari 8-bit original.
Kong, ZX Spectrum
Ocean‘s 1983 release of Kong was an unofficial clone of Donkey Kong, and not a very good one at that. Kong was another early ZX Spectrum game I bought and thought was crap, but was entertaining enough for a few hours at least.
Poster Paster, Commodore 64
Poster Paster is a unique game from Bridlington-based Taskset, first published for the C64 in 1984. It stars player character “Bill Stickers“, who must paste up posters for a living.
Death Pit, ZX Spectrum
***CANNED GAME***
Death Pit was advertised extensively by Durell Software in 1985, but was never released. The completed full game has since been made available online, so you can still play it now.
