Tom and Jerry

Action

Overview

Early impressions of Tom and Jerry paint a divisive picture of this cartoon-inspired runner. While some appreciate its straightforward charm, most players find the execution frustratingly barebones. The core premise faithfully adapts the chase dynamic between the iconic cat and mouse, but repetitive gameplay and technical limitations quickly drain the novelty. This is a game that struggles to justify its existence beyond nostalgic branding, leaving players divided between mild appreciation and outright disappointment.

Chasing Nostalgia, Losing Steam

The game casts players as Tom in a perpetual sprint after Jerry across 2D environments filled with obstacles like benches, poles, and mailboxes. The cartoonish leg-spinning animation captures the show's spirit initially, but the thrill evaporates rapidly. Collisions with any obstacle result in instant failure, creating a trial-and-error rhythm that feels punishing rather than fun. Cat food pickups provide temporary speed boosts to close the gap with Jerry, yet this mechanic fails to add meaningful depth. What begins as a simple concept becomes monotonous within minutes, with later levels only amplifying frustration through cluttered obstacle placement rather than clever design.

As disappointing as this game was, there's at least some challenge to it.

Visuals further undermine the experience with poorly animated sprites and environments that lack the vibrancy of the source material. The 2D art feels like a budget mobile port, failing to leverage the cartoon's slapstick energy. While one fan praises it as "simple to navigate" for younger players, most find the presentation so underwhelming that it actively detracts from the core chase. When your most enthusiastic reviewer admits it's "a bit too easy" while others call it "very hard," it signals fundamental balancing issues.

Everybody knows the cartoon Tom and Jerry, this game is based on the plot of that cartoon. You are Tom the cat and you have to catch Jerry the mouse. You start off as Tom running (in his cartoon leg-spinning style) with Jerry a fair distance ahead of you. As the scenery jerks by there are different obstacles such as benches, poles, postboxes and others. If you hit one of the obstacles its game over, so be careful! As disappointing as this game was there is at least some challenge to it, you have to collect tins of cat food on your way which help you gain speed and close in on Jerry. The graphics are 2D and poorly animated. I felt this game was quite boring and far too simple although as you progress through the scenes it does get more difficult.

This game is an extraordinary game for Tom And Jerry lovers, though maybe a bit too easy, it is simple to navigate and understand. Perfect for people who like character action games.
