Tom & Jerry is a classic 16-bit platformer released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in 1993. Players take control of Jerry, the nimble mouse, as he embarks on a quest through various household environments to rescue his nephew Tuffy from the clutches of the mischievous cat, Tom. Along the way, Jerry must navigate treacherous platforming challenges, dodge household hazards, and defeat an array of insect and toy enemies.
How to play
Your objective is to guide Jerry to the end of each stage, collecting marbles to throw at enemies and cheese to restore health. Since this is an SNES game, the default controls mapped to your keyboard are:
- Movement: Arrow keys (D-pad)
- Jump: X key (A button)
- Throw Marble: Z key (Y button)
- Start/Pause: Enter key
Tips
- Explore vertically; many levels have hidden areas with extra health and 1-ups that require precise jumping to reach.
- Conserve your marbles for tougher enemies or awkward angles, as Jerry’s basic jump attack is usually sufficient for standard foes.
- Pay close attention to Tom’s patterns during boss encounters, as avoiding his attacks is often more important than dealing damage quickly.
