Introduce
In Tom and Jerry - Mousehunt (GBC), players take on the role of the little mouse Jerry in a challenging adventure. Your primary objective is to collect all the pieces of cheese scattered throughout each level and then find your way to the mouse hole to complete the stage. Each level is designed as a complex maze, mimicking familiar household areas like the kitchen, living room, or garden, filled with obstacles and enemies.
Jerry's main antagonist is none other than Tom the cat. Tom will appear in various forms: sometimes he will simply patrol a specific area, and other times he will fiercely chase Jerry. Players must use their agility and cunning to evade Tom, or find ways to distract him. Besides Tom, Jerry also has to contend with other animals like dogs, birds, spiders, and environmental hazards such as spikes, falling objects, or dangerous zones.
The gameplay combines platforming and puzzle-solving elements. To overcome obstacles, Jerry needs to execute precise jumps, and sometimes push objects like crates or boxes to create paths or platforms. Some levels require players to think strategically to find the most efficient route, or how to use environmental items to overcome challenges. The 2D graphics, true to the classic cartoon style, along with cheerful sound effects, create an entertaining experience suitable for all ages.
