The Addams Family adapts the cult sitcom into a platformer with mansion exploration and secondary characters to rescue. The Master System version stays faithful to the 16 bit console versions, with balanced difficulty and careful graphics. Pleasant for franchise fans, in line with the genre average.

Collector interest
This adaptation reached the Master System while the 16-bit version drew the spotlight, making it a low-key PAL printing under the Flying Edge label. The Addams Family licence keeps a steady pull among 8-bit tie-in collectors without any spike. Value rests mostly on a thin European install base and on the shadow of the more sought-after Mega Drive editions sharing the theme.
