Very tedious, shallow game with annoying difficulty that puts you off real fast. The ugly graphics and feeble sound fx really make this a piece of licensed plop.

A bit of a stinker here with super high difficulty masking an incredibly short game (it can be completed in under ten minutes). Ugly graphics, nasty attempt at the Theme tune and very basic gameplay leave this firmly in Cash Grab territory. AVOID!

Fun game, love the Munsters. This game is just VERY unforgiving; still trying to complete it... LEGIT kiddies, no trainers :thumbsup:

And another thing - I really sometimes hate Zzap! Reviews. When they hated the gameplay, they underrated graphics and music. Just take a look - 28% for the graphics, 37% for the sound.

Strange game. Much too hard. I played it with trainer option on and realised the plot is kind of crazy. If I knew TV-series... Catchy music, great graphics. 6, I guess...

THis game is too hard without a trainer, but too short. Interesting gameplay though... But very strange.

That great TV-serie as a 64 game. It is great. Superb graphics. Nice "Munsters" title theme and great game-play. (And another great IKARI crack, the first for 1989 I recall... )

The game is OK I guess.
