Home Alone film adaptation. Confusing levels, awkward controls, faithful mood. Disappointing for the license.

Description
Home Alone 2D platformer from the film. Published by THQ, released in 1991. 5+ levels, Kevin to control, burglar traps, movie storyline. Released in Europe, Japan and North America.
A THQ adaptation of the hit film on the NTSC market, out as early as 1991 on a Hollywood blockbuster: the licence's strength explains a broad US print run, leaving the loose cart very common and cheap despite the name. With no gameplay quality to spark a cult, desirability rests entirely on the sealed artifact: it's the graded new copy or an unwarped cardboard box that carry value, the tie-in itself staying a budget-tier title for completists.
