Thanks for reading my review of The Addams Family for Nintendo!  --kramer4077

Overall  9/10--Yeah, they're creepy and they're kooky and all that jazz!  You know the crazy TV show The Addams Family, right?  Well this is a Nintendo game based on that odd TV show.  The game is very cute and has that "classic Nintendo" feel to it.  You play the game as Gomez, the father of the Addams family.  He has to run around the house and try to find his family members--Morticia, Lurch, Wednesday, Pugsley, and I think even little old Granny.  The game wasn't all that popular, but is quite the Nintendo gem I must say!  I am just now seeing there are versions of this game on other consoles, but I can't compare this game with those.  I consider it similar to Maniac Mansion for Nintendo, so if you are familiar with and enjoy that game, you will probably also like this one!  It has more of a mission to it other than just kill all the bad guys.  You should give The Addams Family Nintendo game a try if you haven't played it before!

Graphics:  9/10--Well the original television show was in black and white, so the graphics seem like a Picasso masterpiece compared to that   The designs of the mansion and characters are all very splendid.  There are some intricate details in this game, and as I've previously said, the style of it reminds me a lot of Maniac Mansion.

Sound:  9/10--Um...the Addams Family theme song might be stuck in your head afterword...just warning you!  It's constantly playing in the background and there are cool sound effects.

Addictiveness:  9/10--Yes, this game is addictive.  You will want to try and save all the family members and beat the game.  When I played this game as a child, I could never beat it.  It's very difficult, yet fun, which is what makes it so addictive!  There are enemies everywhere that drain your life bar.  It can be challenging to avoid all of them, especially when they jump out of nowhere or throwing things at you! 

Story:  8/10--The Addams family has to save their home and Gomez has to find and save the family.  The story here is pretty decent and not as weird as some of the story lines on the old television show.

Depth:  As the character of Gomez you have to solve clues and follow directions in order to find the family members.  There is a lot to explore around the house and many rooms to enter.  You begin the game outside of the house in the garden.  There is definitely plenty to do in this game and you won't find yourself bored of it.

Difficulty:  9/10--This game is very challenging, especially when I played it as a youngster!  There are many "enemies" all around you and some pop out of no where.  You lose life pretty quickly and you only have 3 chances to restart!  Much like Mario games, you have to jump on enemies to kill them, so if you miss or touch them accidentally you lose some of your life bar.  The difficulty is what makes it fun!

All in all, I recommend you try The Addams Family if you enjoy original Nintendo games with a good old fashioned classic feel to them!
