Play Home Alone 2: Lost in New York Online

Summary

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York lets you step into Kevin McCallister’s shoes as he darts through iconic New York spots like the Plaza Hotel, Central Park, and his uncle’s townhouse. The Game Boy version gives Kevin a quirky move set—Slide, Flying Fist, and Super Flying Fist—plus a dart gun for ranged trouble, while a tossed necklace can make patrolling foes slip right off the screen, a nod to the film’s pearl‑trick.

Power‑ups are delightfully festive, ranging from pizza slices and whole pies to cookies, bells, candy canes, and even after‑shave for that extra boost. The game carries a quiet tribute to programmer Tom D. Heidt, who passed away just before launch. Critics were lukewarm, handing the handheld a modest 2.5 out of 5. A planned sequel, Home Alone 2: Lost In New York: Kevin’s Dream, was announced for 1994 but never saw the light of day.
