Unlike the previous game, which was based loosely on the film, Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt is based on the '90s cartoon adaptation. It's also more or less a cut-down port of the first SNES game, in case you weren't already confused enough.
It's a rare instance of a NES game not having in-game music. It has the odd porting oversight, like Abigail Craven from the first movie (that the aforementioned SNES game is based on) still being mentioned in one of the message blocks.

Hidden Credits#
Game Genie code GAULAVGK re-enables a pair of copyright screens that are normally disabled. These are visible normally in the prototype, so it's not known why they were disabled in the final.

Regional Differences#
The European version has a different HUD displayed at the bottom of the screen, flashing between showing your score and hearts or lives and candy.
