The Addams Family is a non-linear action-platformer developed by Ocean Software for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in 1991. You play as Gomez Addams, exploring the vast, labyrinthine rooms of the Addams mansion to rescue his missing family members from the scheming Abigail Craven.

How to play

Your objective is to navigate the mansion's dangerous traps and enemies to find Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Granny, and Lurch. You can tackle most areas in any order, defeating enemies primarily by jumping on their heads. Use the arrow keys (↑↓←→) to move and enter doors, and press Z or X to jump. Additional controls include A, S, Q, and E for extended actions, with Enter for Start and Shift for Select.

Tips

Explore thoroughly: The mansion is filled with secret rooms and hidden 1-Ups. Try jumping into seemingly solid walls to uncover hidden passages.
Stockpile lives: Areas like the freezer and toy box feature challenging platforming with slippery physics and precise jumps, so gathering extra lives early is crucial.
Use passwords: The game provides passwords after you rescue family members. Keep track of them to save your progress without restarting.
