I remember reading walkthroughs of this particular game in video game magazines during months and months. That meant for me that The Addams Family was probably a very long game, which frightened me a bit. It is in fact a decent platformer with what we can call an open 2D world, in which you can explore and choose your path. The graphics are good and the controls too, and albeit being a bit difficult sometimes, the game is a good experience overall.
