A brilliant retro homage

Remember the classic Advenure game for the 2600?

This is a great homage to it. Brilliant retro graphics to match the original. It's like it's an updated Adventure game for 2017. 5/5

fantastic homage to fantastic game

This is a more perfect love letter to Adventure than even Ready Player One. As someone who found the original wizard’s ring and the world’s first video game Easter egg via whispernet back before the internet was a thing, I’m absolutely delighted to find this gem and wholeheartedly recommend it. It won’t pull at the heart strings of younger gamers in quite the same way, but it’s fun enough and an awesome tribute to yesteryear that I suspect they could also really enjoy it.

My favorite game as a kid

This game captures the original perfectly. Only way better. The levels are infinite, and get harder each time. At this point I have purchased all of the upgrades: speed, sword power, storage. I have over 10,000 unspendable coins. And I’m on level 129. The hardest level I’ve gotten through took me over two weeks. I love it.

chill

I’m stuck on the couch due to a back injury and I’ve really enjoyed playing this game today. The atmosphere is great, and I didn’t even grow up with the Atari.

Worth a play through just for the cute story

I loved every second of this game! It was easy to pickup and play, and I loved listening to the music and dialogue from my mom. Super interesting twist on a classic concept

Fun dies quickly

It’s neat at first. Not really like Adventure aside from the look. No explanation about anything, but you get most things by dying a few times and learning how to do whatever, like sword fighting. Later levels are just you avoiding enemy after enemy after enemy with no sword.

Thank you for making this game

It’s very much worth the .99¢ price tag.

Broken

Doesn’t work at all. Can’t drop first item. Game is busted.

WOW

For .99 cents is amazing but I have a complaint,maybe I’m and idiot or something but I can’t manage to get past the 9th level

Feels like a modern sequel to Adventure

I have an affection for the Atari 2600. This game pays homage to one of the best games of the system. It adds complexity, problem solving, and infinite replayability.

Very entertaining but buggy at the end

I loved Atari’s Adventure and this game remains very faithful to the original.
There are 24 worlds with various monsters and you collect coins to “level up”. You can hold onto more than one item, increase your speed and improve your sword skills. The storyline is interesting. I’m not a fan of the “wraparound effect “ especially in unlit screens. And you cannot see objects in the dark unless they are in the candlelit area (a la’ “Haunted House “ Atari game).

I’m now up to level 60 and my biggest complaint is that there’s always two monsters on the screen. I wouldn’t really mind that IF I COULD FIND THE SWORD!!
I’m not afraid of the monsters, but if I paid all that money for level 8 (max) sword ability, then for goodness sake give me a sword. The perk for paying for level 8 sword ability should be that I should be always outfitted with a sword at the beginning of the level, otherwise I feel cheated. I don’t mind fending off and fighting five, six, seven monsters on a screen at a time (it does get crazy at level 60), with monsters moving at super speed and continually bumping into gravestones, rocks, etc, and the sword slipping this way and that after every fight, but please change the program so at the very high levels where we’re fending off hordes of monsters.
At level 8, it’s uncomfortable to play the coward and run from fights.
Valor forever!

I love it!!!

The game is a riff/homage of the classic Atari 2600 game ADVENTURE but it’s so much more!!! I love it!

Amazing!

I love this game so much! I still play Adventure and Pixa pays homage to this classic. Thank you so much for creating Pixa!

Great remake

I have always wanted a good remake of the classic Adventure and thus game delivers. My only problem is the lack of instruction. I don’t understand how the combat system works and usually end up running away from the because I cannot seem to defeat them. Give us some more instruction and i would give it a better rating

Adventure has never been this fun

I basically never review apps, but this game deserves it. Exceptionally well written, great gameplay, good music and just all around well done. Little details like the barrel distortion of the screen to harken back to the big CRT TV I played Adventure on my parents’ 2600 35 years ago. Fun, inexpensive, simple entertaining apps are exactly what this platform was designed for. I so prefer to just pay up front and own the game, just like the before time that this game is all about. Thank you devs, excellent work!

Love it

Honestly, this is one of my favorite games ever. In normal games, they start you off as a loved, respected person, part of the "illustrious player lineage". In Pixa, you must earn that respect. Also, I like how you grow more attached to the characters as the story goes on. You developers are very talented! I hope the source code makes it to GitHub.

The best sequel and homage to Adventure

I loved Adventure. I tried most of the homebrew sequels and this is by far the best. Once I figured out the trick to fight the dragons. That's the only downside, it's not clear how the dragon gauge works. For me, near screen-wide horizontal swipes back-and-forth relatively fast did the trick. The levels are fun with twisted layouts that challenge you to find the "chalice". To the developers: thank you for capturing the spirit and making an awesome iOS game.

Atari Adventure Again!

Did you love playing Atari Adventure on the 2600 back in the early 80's? This game is for you. The sequel that never was. And those classic sounds. Love it!
