Tom and Jerry: The Movie (トム&ジェリー ザ ムービー), also known asTom and Jerry, is aplatform game developed bySIMS and published bySega in 1992 for theMaster System. In 1993, the game was converted to theGame Gear with completely different stages, but the same gameplay. The game was released to coincide withthe film of the same name, but has no relevance to the film's content.
In the Master System version, Tom adventurously chases Jerry inside the house, outside, through the country then back inside the house, ending with Tom finally catching Jerry. In the Game Gear version, Tom chases Jerry on a quest to look for a hidden treasure, taking them from the house all the way to an island where the treasure is buried.
The player controls Tom in the game. He chases Jerry through lengthy stages, hindered by Jerry who lays explosive traps and goes under platforms. Tom can climb platforms, jump gaps, and pounce. Ideally, Jerry can be caught at the end of the level by solving a puzzle, but it is possible to catch Jerry earlier in the level with great difficulty. Once Jerry is caught, the level ends and proceeds to the next one.
The game was released onMaster System in 1992,Game Gear in 1993,Game Boy on October 2, 1993,[4] and onGenesis more than two months later.[5]
