Released in 1990, Gremlins 2: The New Batch is an action-adventure game based on the movie of the same name. In Gremlins 2: The New Batch, players navigate through various levels that mirror key locations and scenarios from the movie. The game's protagonist is Gizmo, the adorable and kind Mogwai, who must defend himself against the mischievous and destructive Gremlins that have overrun the Clamp Center, a state-of-the-art skyscraper where most of the game's action takes place.

The gameplay is a mix of platforming and action elements. As Gizmo, players explore the different areas of the Clamp Center, each presenting its unique challenges and enemies. The game does a great job of capturing the atmosphere of the film, with levels that are designed to reflect the movie's diverse settings, from office spaces to television studios.

Gizmo is equipped with various weapons and gadgets, some of which are inspired by scenes from the film. These items are used to fend off and defeat the Gremlins. The combat requires a blend of strategy and timing, as different Gremlins have unique behaviors and weaknesses. Apart from the action-packed combat, the game also involves puzzle-solving elements. Players need to find items, unlock doors, or activate mechanisms to progress through the levels. These puzzles add an additional layer of depth to the gameplay, requiring players to think critically and explore their environment thoroughly.

The game was well-received for its faithful adaptation of the movie's plot and its balanced blend of action, adventure, and puzzle-solving. Players appreciated the game's ability to recreate the film's humorous yet dark tone, along with the chance to control one of the most beloved characters from the Gremlins franchise.
