Game Overview

Ocean Software released The Addams Family for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1992, during a time when licensed platformers were common. It stood out for its source material, translating the quirky, spooky atmosphere of the Addams Family into a side scrolling adventure. The game felt like a natural fit for the SNES, with detailed backgrounds and a moody soundtrack that captured the look of the films.

You control Gomez Addams, moving through the mansion room by room to rescue family members from the greedy Tully Alford. The gameplay involves jumping across chandeliers, avoiding traps like snapping alligator heads, and searching for hidden switches to reveal secret passages. Thing, the disembodied hand, occasionally appears to offer helpful items. The pacing is deliberate, with some challenging platforming sections and a fair number of enemies to avoid. It feels like exploring a large, interactive puzzle box filled with the family's strange belongings.
