OM AND JERRY TALES VIDEOGAME
HITS STORES TODAY, OCTOBER 31
Beloved Cat and Mouse Duo Star in Separate Versions for the Game Boy Advance
and Nintendo DS Systems, Each Featuring Exclusive Content
Burbank, Calif. - October 31, 2006 - The Tom and Jerry TalesTM videogame, published
by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and distributed by Eidos Interactive,
hits stores today on the Nintendo DST system and Game BoyR Advance system.
Developed by Sensory Sweep Studios, both versions of Tom and Jerry Tales allow
gamers to play as Jerry, who must make his way through the house to survive -
running through mouse holes, destroying the house through interactions with Tom
and recovering the precious cheese that Tom has stolen along the way. Each version
of the game features exclusive content: the Game Boy Advance version includes
various mini-games to keep the chase rolling, while the Nintendo DS version includes
touch-screen activated events that require players to use quick reflexes to cleverly
avoid Tom and create general mayhem in the house.
Tom and Jerry Tales is inspired by the duo's first new U.S. television series
in more than 13 years which debuted this fall as part of the Kids'
WB! Saturday morning programming block on The CW Network. The game is rated
"E for Everyone" (mild cartoon violence) for the Game Boy Advance and "E for
Everyone" (comic mischief) for the Nintendo DS. Tom and Jerry Tales is available
for a suggested retail price of $29.99.
