Iconic! Perhaps maybe not right at the time, but now this game is one of those classics of the 16-bit era that everyone fondly remembers. Clear level upon level of zombie killing/neighbor saving with regular household items, like cans of pop and squirt guns. It was unfortunately not a commercial success but everyone who did play it loved it. It has a certain sense of humor about it that a lot of games from the era didn't really approach, as well as just a fun premise and gameplay that is way better than it has any right to be. Did you fight the many monsters of Dr. Tongue, either on the Genesis or any other system it was released for?!

Loved it but was incredibly hard. One of those games I'd use a game genie with to experience all the levels. There was even one level you could only access with cheats. You walked around the game studios office meeting the programmers and a floating head would try to kill you.

Irony posted... I liked it until the later levels that were rehash In all honesty, the first fight with the spider boss on level 36 is where the game should have ended. There are 48 levels (not counting the credits or bonus levels) and you stop seeing new enemies after level 20. It's fun, but a game's length should mostly run parallel to its variety. ...

Never finished it as it was way too long and difficult, especially considering the fact there was no save function, and using passwords starts you off without all the hard-earned weapons and items you've collected.
Still, I can definitely see the appeal, and I've enjoyed watching LP videos of this game throughout the years. I don't really feel the need to play it again myself though. --- One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls. ...

Use a red potion to turn into a monster or find a safe spot to lobby soda grenades at it. Pandora's Box also works great against giant babies. That way you won't have to get too close, and a tactical position on the edge of the baby's 'playground' will also prevent it from killing any victims near it. --- One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls. ...

Oh that's a great rec. The Addams Family is a great platformer. Never played Values though since the Genesis port was never released in NA.It felt like it was more of a Nintendo series. First we got Festers Quest on the Nes, where Fester for some reason fights invading aliens. Then we got 3 platformer games inspired by the first movie, the 8-bit one (Master System/Nes), the 16-bit one (Genesis/Snes), and the TG-16 one (where you play that lawyer guy in some kind of prequel / alternative story). The Gameboy got a game that at first seems inspired by the 16-bit game, but it is its own thing, I dont think it is even related to the movie. Then we got Values on Genesis/Snes, which is more Zelda inspired. After that, it skipped Sega. Pugsleys Treasure Hunt on Snes is a spiritual sequel to the first 16-bits game, inspired by the then current Addams Family cartoon. It got less levels, which weights up by a huge graphical variation in the levels. It also got ported to the Nes and GameBoy, which were basically ports of the first Snes game. Then we got The New Addams Family on GameBoy Color, basically a point and click game based on the rebooted TV series. Strangely it only got released in Europe. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC ... Copied to Clipboard!
