How to Play Addams Family, The: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt
Quick start
Press START at the title screen. Outside the mansion, practice variable-height jumps and defeat the tree and ghost by landing on them. Climb the rope for the fez-copter, use repeated jumps to fly, and check the chimney for extra lives before entering the house. The central hall branches into several areas, so search rooms for hearts and rescued family members instead of expecting one fixed route. Read Thing's messages, use Up at doors and Down at pipes or low entrances, and note the password on the START status screen before leaving a session.
Controls
D-pad Left/Right: move Pugsley. Up: climb upward, stand after crouching, or enter doors. Down: climb downward, crouch, or enter pipes and low passages. A: jump; tap for a short jump or hold for a higher jump. Hold A after bouncing on an enemy to rebound higher; with the fez-copter, press A repeatedly to rise. B: shuffle slightly right. SELECT: shuffle slightly left. START: begin or pause and show the status/password screen; press A to resume. While paused, press START and then SELECT to end the game.
Addams Family, The: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt — About this game
The Addams Family: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt is a non-linear NES platform adventure set throughout the mansion, its grounds, and the passages beneath it. Pugsley must rescue Gomez, Wednesday, Granny, Uncle Fester, and Morticia, gathering the rescued family in the music room so Lurch can reveal the route onward. Exploration mixes doors, ropes, chains, pipes, hidden rooms, switches, hazards, and bosses. Enemies are defeated by landing on their heads, while hearts measure energy and collectibles provide recovery, extra lives, speed, temporary flight, and access to optional rewards.
