[TAS] [Obsoleted] NES The Addams Family by ktwo in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
This movie has been obsoleted by tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2022-07-08
The Addams Family (1991) is an extremely difficult game in which Gomez Addams must find his missing family members and recover the family's home from their greedy lawyer, Tully Alford. Gomez must collect US$1,000,000 in order to get through the security door in the basement. The game is very badly programmed; Gomez must avoid objects by a significant distance in order to avoid taking damage.
By taking new routes and further optimizing existing ones, ktwo ( tasvideos.org/... ) improves on the previous run ( tasvideos.org/... ) by 23.21 seconds. You can read the author's notes ( tasvideos.org/... ) for more details.
We also have runs of the SNES ( tasvideos.org/... ) and Game Boy ( tasvideos.org/... ) versions of the game.

Just watching this TAS I can tell that this game isn't "difficult," it's sadistic.

Dying is essential for survival in this run.... also wall floating!! Love it

[@NietypowyKurde]

Man this game, I remember how long it took me to beat it, how many times I got a game over in the Freezer and how I found a few secret rooms all on my own by accident

7:53 always been my favourite part of the movie!

2:24 Откуда, после смерти появились дополнительные жизни?

[@knox1392]

Wow! A whopping 20 seconds shaved off! I didn't think it could be optimized much further, good job!

That run certainly was creepy and kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
and all together ooky,
A TAS of the Addams Family

Annoying as it is, I always loved this game as a kid. Whoever is playing this is a master.

TAS stands for tool assisted speed run. Every second is meticulously put together to create the best run. This is just the finished product

[@The_Wandering_Nerd]

I didn't know the Addams Family lived in Jet Set Willy's mansion

[@sarcasticguy4311]

That's the most disturbing Morticia I've ever seen.

[@olivierwiz]

Ce jeu est stupidement difficile.. Je ne sais même pas comment j'ai réussi à le finir gamin.

[@Gearless03]

Супер!!!

[@mm3shadowman982]

never seen addams family so I was wondering how they made the protag look more mexican than anything I've seen

[@blujay1608]

The Addams' are of Spanish descent, as in Spain specifically. A lot of the architecture of their tv/movie mansion is baroque-inspired.

Never would've guessed the money is not just for score, I used to play this on a ps1 nintendo emulator called imbNES (it might be nes) but couldn't figure it out what to do.

First comment

[@1is1]

The use of edited continues makes this video not a speedrun. Impressive but I played no deaths and this is not noteworthy

[@blujay1608]

I don't know.... Beating the game in under 11 minutes is pretty speedy lol
