About Tom & Jerry

"Tom & Jerry - The Ultimate Game of Cat and Mouse!" is a platforming adventure where the player controls Jerry the mouse. The objective is a vertical ascent through a house, beginning in the basement and proceeding upward to an attic.

This journey is undertaken to save Jerry's nephew Tuffy, who has been captured by Tom the cat. Progress requires navigating various levels while dealing with enemies and environmental obstacles.

Jerry utilizes a primary weapon of marbles, available without limit. Additional items found during play, including a meat cleaver, hammer, drill, and cups of water, provide further means to confront challenges. The player must also evade or outsmart Tom when he appears directly.

Collectible cheese serves as a power-up, and hidden mouse holes offer access to separate bonus stages. The gameplay structure is noted for its similarity to another platformer, Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers.
