Addams Family, The (Mega Drive) price, value & rarity
Is Addams Family, The still worth playing in 2026?
The Addams Family is a platformer adapted from the film, in which Gomez roams the family mansion and its outbuildings to rescue his relatives, jumping and facing wacky enemies. The varied level design and the colorful gothic mood make it a competent platformer, in the vein of Ocean's productions of the era. The slightly floaty handling and uneven difficulty temper the enthusiasm. For fans of retro platformers and the Addams universe, it is an honest and pleasant adventure, without reaching the genre's peaks on the machine.
