# The Addams Family Values ## Thoughts I recall playing this game at my cousins' house at least a time or two — maybe even borrowing it — but I don't think I ever got very far. I remember navigating a sewer area, fighting a large plant in a greenhouse, and that's about it. **This is not a forgiving game!** If you lose health, your offensive power goes down in the form of your lightning attack losing range. This makes combat significantly harder since you'll have to get closer to enemies, which in turn makes it more likely that you'll get hit again. The other issue I remember having is finding any sort of checkpoint, save spot, or somewhere that actually gives you a password to continue later. It's possible I just don't remember that part, though. > *According to [this walkthrough](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/snes/588183-addams-family-values/faqs/57245), you just need to find Cousin It in the swamps. This is something I never knew back in the day! See below. > [!quote] Saving - The only way you can save your progress is by talking to Cousin It in the Eastern Swamps. Find him to save as often as needed. In hindsight, this seems like one of those games that were never really intended to be finished by kids of the era, not to mention if you had rented the game versus buying it outright. ## Progress **Main Story:** *Incomplete* --- [[2026 - April 27 - Monday]]: I was thinking about this game for some reason, so I added some thoughts above.
