Pitfall

The pitfall trap is a hole in the ground that leads to a pit that is designed to trap a victim. In Relic Rally, the pitfall trap is designed to be placed underneath a platform in a level to be the danger when a player falls off of the platform. 

The intended function of the pitfall trap in Relic Rally is to trap the player within the pit space momentarily, causing an impasse for progression, before they are then teleported back to the start of the hazard (using a spawner) to allow the player to attempt to pass the hazard again.

The pitfall trap is classified as a major hazard as it is capable of giving the player a disadvantage by the seconds (typically, one second).
