input = Keyboard,Joystick "Death Pit" was advertised quite extensively in 1985 by
Durell Software and was completed but not considered good enough for release. An article in issue 25 ofCRASH_(magazine) remarked: "although halfway through the project there was a moment when it looked like the game might make a commercial release, it didn't come up to scratch". Clive Townsend, however, did use some of the routines from this game in the programming of "Saboteur".Plot
The player controls a hero who has to climb down through the Death Pits looking for treasure. Having limited air and ammo the player must avoid huge monsters.
Gameplay
The player must make his way through the complex of caves to find the treasure.
