About the Game:
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is a 1992 video game based loosely on the 1992 film of the same name. It was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Genesis, Game Boy, DOS, and Super NES platforms.[5] It was dedicated to Tom D. Heidt, a programmer who died shortly before it was released.[6]
The game was released in late 1992 for all three Nintendo consoles available at the time. Mechanically, the three versions are identical, with the Game Boy version being virtually identical to the NES version aside from the monochrome graphics, lowered resolution and map differences. The DOS version was released in 1992. The Genesis version was released a year later in 1993.[citation needed]
The player controls Kevin McCallister as he makes his way alone through New York City. Locations include the Plaza Hotel, Central Park, Uncle Rob McCallister's townhouse, and the streets of New York. Kevin fights enemies using a Slide, Flying Fist and Super Flying Fist moves; for weapons, he uses a Dart gun. Using a Necklace will cause walking enemies to slip off the screen (referencing a scene where Kevin uses the pearls from a necklace to trip up his pursuers). Powerups include Pizza Slices, Whole Pies, Cookies, Bells, Candy Canes and After Shave.[11]
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was awarded Worst Sequel of 1992 by Electronic Gaming Monthly. They also awarded it Worst Movie-to-Game of 1996.[17]
