The Pit (US set 1) — About this game
The Pit (US set 1) sends an astronaut beneath the landing site to dig through a hazardous labyrinth and recover treasure. A surface tank supplies the deadline by shooting away the mountain near the waiting spaceship. Underground rocks, arrows, monsters and acid threaten the route, but collecting the treasure is only half the journey: returning requires crossing the retracting floor over the creature in the pit before boarding the ship again.
