Addams Family, The
The Addams Family is a side-scrolling action platformer released by Ocean in 1992 for the Super Nintendo. The player controls Gomez Addams through multiple levels set in and around the Addams Family mansion. Gameplay combines platforming with combat: players navigate jumping puzzles while fighting enemies, collecting weapons and items to boost attack power. Level design varies across different mansion rooms and outdoor areas, each featuring unique enemies and environmental hazards. The standard platformer controls respond to directional input and action buttons for jumping and striking. The game's atmosphere draws from the Addams Family's dark comedic tone. Progress is linear through a succession of themed stages, combining the exploration of the macabre household with combat encounters that require both precise platforming skill and combat timing.
