How to Play Montezuma's Return!
Quick start
Use the opening rooms to learn the fixed distance of a running jump. Approach edges carefully and jump only after checking the landing. Climb rather than drop down a long shaft, collect keys before retracing your route, and write down progress passwords when they appear. SELECT checks the map.
Controls
Left/Right moves; Up/Down climbs ropes and poles. Either A or B jumps, so the second action button is another way to jump rather than an attack key. SELECT opens the map. Plan horizontal jumps before leaving the ledge, since airborne correction is limited.
Montezuma's Return! — About this game
Explore a pyramid whose linked chambers turn treasure hunting into a test of precise jumps and route planning. Collect keys, climb ropes and poles, and watch the timing of moving or disappearing platforms. Skulls and other creatures patrol the rooms, while long falls can be fatal. Passwords record progress, letting you return to the maze with its dangerous paths already in mind. Use the opening rooms to learn the fixed distance of a running jump. Approach edges carefully and jump only after checking the landing. Climb rather than drop down a long shaft, collect keys before retracing your route, and write down progress passwords when they appear. SELECT checks the map.
