Play Addams Family, The - Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt (Europe) (Beta) Online – Nintendo (NES) Game

Game Overview

"The Addams Family: Pugsley’s Scavenger Hunt" for the NES is a quirky, offbeat platformer that throws you into the shoes of Pugsley Addams, the mischievous son of the iconic spooky clan. While it may not be as famous as its cousin, "The Addams Family" (the Fester’s Quest follow-up), this hidden gem captures the family’s eerie charm with its gothic visuals, playful traps, and eerie soundtrack. Your mission? Help Pugsley hunt down bizarre items scattered across the Addams mansion—because nothing says "family bonding" like dodging animated suits of armor and outsmarting the supernatural!

Though it started as a beta release in Europe, the game’s tight controls and clever level design make it a nostalgic treat for retro fans. It’s shorter and more straightforward than some NES classics, but the Addams’ signature weirdness gives it personality to spare. If you love oddball platformers with a side of macabre humor, this scavenger hunt is worth digging up—just watch out for Thing! 👋
