Comments:

Although this is a blatant Mario rip-off it is still enjoyable. You play Gomez Addams as he searches the various rooms of the mansion for the missing members of the family. Each is a different world with it's own theme. The graphics and sound are good but the main sprite is slightly difficult to control. Has virtually nothing in common with the film!
