Addams Family Values

"Addams Family Values is an Action RPG based on the film of the same name produced by Ocean Software and released in 1995 for the Sega Mega Drive and Super NES.

Story
Loosely based on the plot of the film, the player takes the role of Uncle Fester as he searches for the recently kidnapped baby Pubert. On the way he receives help from The Addams Family and a host of original characters from the game.

Gameplay
An action adventure game with slight RPG elements (you gain more hit points while proceeding in the game, can upgrade your equipment and special attacks). You control Fester, by moving him around, fighting regular enemies and bosses, talking to members of Addams household, and occasionally solving puzzles. The combat is pure action, Zelda-style.

Reception
The graphics and sound have been described as "average". It has also been called "very fun and addictive" and a "forgotten gem". A criticism is that instead of a save system the game relies on passwords, and that these passwords are given to the player in unusual locations and too infrequently
