Home alone, It was one of the greatest Christmas movies of 1991, So when I heard they were making a game for the Sega genesis game, I burst of excitement, Home alone and Sega coming together, It would be like bread and butter, I mean the movie had action, violence, humor, and everything else, So did they get all of that right? Let's go ahead and find out! This is Home alone for the Sega genesis.

Story-7/10
The story is the exact same thing as the movie, Kevin's parents are going on a  Christmas vacation, But they have clearly forgotten one thing, KEVIN! So Kevin must survive in his house alone until his parents get back, but to make matters worse, these 2 thugs named Harry and marv are going around the neighborhood flooding all the houses! So It is up to Kevin to stop the bandits, save Christmas, and reunite with his parents.

Gameplay-7/10
In this action adventure game, you will take the role of Kevin, as you go around the neighborhood protecting all of the houses and stopping Harry and marv, there is a central hub in the game, and It is Kevin's neighborhood, but note that Kevin will have to get around the hood on a snow sled, because after all, It is wintertime! So there are 5 houses to protect in the game, and they are all unique, There is Kevin's house, a futuristic house, a columbial house with ghosts, etc. Before you enter each house, you must set booby traps around the house to stop the bandits, after that you must chill in the house until the bandits come, then this is where it gets serious, once they come there will be 3 meters on the screen, Ammo shows you how much ammo you have left in your BB gun, Pain shows how much pain you have caused to the bandits, and loot shows how much stuff they have stolen. Once the loot is all empty, the house is officaly done, and once all 5 houses are done, the game is officaly done. I really like the concept of this game, It feels so Home alone then usual! There are 2 difficulty levels, Easy and Expert, only difference is Easy has you surviving for 20 minutes, And expert has you surviving 40 minutes, well that is it for gameplay.

Graphics-7/10
This game was released in 1991, which is the exact same year the Genesis was first released, And to be honest, this game doesn't look as good as all the other genesis titles at the time such as Sonic the hedgehog, But you got to admit, They still did a pretty good job indeed! All levels you will be exploring are big, unique, and bursting with color. As for the character sprites, they look alright, considering this was a genesis game, All the characters look like thereselves, Like Kevin, the bandits, etc. I say, good job Sega! You perfectly brung the home alone universe perfectly to the 32-Bit universe!

Sound-7/10
Alright what do I think of the sound? In my opinion the sound isn't the greatest I have heard on the genesis, but It is still pretty darn good! All the songs that you will be hearing in each level fit the mood of them all perfectly. As for the sound effects, they are very and I say VERY quiet, but they are still noticeable, You get your basic booms, bangs, pistol shots, etc. But one problem though, some of the music can get repetitive, But It is ok.

Addictiveness-7/10
Is this a game I will platy again? Why of course! In fact, I still have the game on my shelf, Just waiting to be played, In fact, I am going to play it later now. Back when I was a kid, I actually really liked this game! It was way better then all other movie games at the time, you can't lie about that. I have completed this game 10 times by now! That's insane.

Depth-5/10
The game isn't that long, But it depends on what difficulty you play on, Easy has you surviving for 20 minutes, while Expert has you surving for 40 minutes. But to be honest, the game doesn't really award you anything much even after completing it on expert level, But the game still kept my busy for a while.

Difficulty-6/10
If you're an experienced gamer like me, Then the game shouldn't give you much trouble. This is one of the low points of the game, But If you want a really challenge, I suggest you try out the expert difficulty level, That should give you some challenge. Otherwise the game is just plain too easy! I am being honest when I say that.

Overall-7.6/10
So if you want a good movie game on the Sega genesis, I highly suggest you get this one! It has fun, challenge, action, and everything else that other movie games don't have. I gave this game a 7.6 because How much fun It is and everything It offers. So go ahead and buy this one now! You won't regret It my friend. This has been RedHotToddy, And I am signing out!
