This game is loads of fun, replayable totally! You of course, are that little blonde kid we all remember screaming after he puts on after shave. You must save your neihborhood from the wet bandits! Hurry! Set traps in each house to add you in your quest to keep the neighborhood dry, but also build your own weapons and keep them from looting the place! Very differnt! Very fun! One of the all time best video games!

I ran into this game when I was 13 years old I didnot know they made one for the sega genesis I glad I ran into this one by accident it is awesome and the controls are not easy to get used to at first but with some practice you will get used to it This Version of Home Alone I like the best and it is the best one ever made the nintendo and super nintendo versions both sucked major ass because of how bad the controls were in the game but thank god the controls in this game are so much easier

If you loved the movie, you would probably love the game..well, at least this version of the game.

There are two gameplay modes: Beginner and Expert. The Beginner's mode lasts 20 minutes. The burglars' plumbers truck moves a bit slow. The Wet Bandits go to houses in a certain pattern The items you collect in the houses would automatically be formed together to make weapons you can use to injure the Wet Bandits. In Expert mode, the game lasts 40 minutes, the truck moves faster, the burglars have no pattern to follow, and you form the weapons yourself.

Don't know what I'm talking about? Here, read below.
As Kevin, you start outside one of the houses with your sled. You must follow the Wet Bandits as they go to a house. Before they enter one, however, you must go inside first to set up the traps. After you're done, you really go in the house. It plays like a platform game when you're inside a house. So you go around, get some items, and then the Wet Bandits come. If you're not in the same house as them, you better chase them before they flood the house. There are 5 houses. My favorite is the Ultra-Modern House, where it has a futuristic theme. The houses would probably have their own traps (Spiders, robots, etc). So you must give the Wet Bandits enough pain to fill up the Pain meter so they can get out of the house.

Now all that action is what makes the game awesome. You form weapons and set traps in a platformer in which you must hurt the burglars to kick them out!

The music and sounds are as good as any great 16-bit game.

The graphics are also very neat and they fit in with the game greatly.

Overall, SEGA represented Home Alone in the best way possible in a video game.
