Home Improvement | SNES | Absolute Entertainment | 1994
Sitcoms can't work as videogames unless handled very carefully. And the Home Improvement videogame was not handled very carefully.
Theseshows are popular because of the dialogue and character dynamics, so the only game genres that can really provide them a proper home are RPGs and point and click adventures. Obviously the last thing you’d want to do would be to take the lead character out of his natural environment and stick him in say, a platformer. That would divorce him from all of the relationships and conventions that give his personality scope for humour, as well as being bastard hard to impliment coherently.
Can anyone guess what happened with the Home Improvement game? Oh, all of you.
