Gomez Addams finds himself alone after the family's treacherous lawyer, Tully Alford, seizes control of their sprawling Gothic estate and locks away Morticia, Pugsley, Wednesday, Granny, and Uncle Fester behind its dark corridors. To free them, Gomez must navigate through the mansion's labyrinthine rooms, scavenging for essential items and confronting the supernatural creatures that guard each passage. The game grants players unusual autonomy for its time, allowing them to chart their own path through the house and determine the sequence in which they'll rescue family members—though Morticia remains locked away until all others have been found, setting her as the final objective in Gomez's quest.
