Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

I'm not huge on the Addams Theme or Dialed In for that matter, but will be looking into getting more playtime on a Dialed In again soon.
It seems to me that Addams Family was the inspiration for the Jurassic Park Rules, and Possibly Dialed in as well. What do you think Addams took inspiration from?

Addams is/was an archetypical Pat Lawlor pin. Cross-playfield shots, scoops to start modes, cross playfield ramps, etc. See Earthshaker, Whirlwind, and Funhouse before it...

That said, Monopoly is oft-called a "poor man's" Addams for the similar shot placement.

Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

That's funny, I've never played Earthshaker, Whirlwind, or Funhouse, but have been drawn to all 3 based off of video. I'll get hands on one day. My Jurassic Park is a complete ripoff of the Whirlwind playfield with Addams family rules. No wonder I like it.

You'd probably love GNR then, too, haha. Not very similar shot-wise, but rules are comparable. And the Addams "Power" ain't got nothing on the GNR magnets!
