How it plays
How does Tom and Jerry: Frantic Antics! play?
The game uses a side-view platforming perspective. Tom travels through linear stages, jumping across platforms, avoiding hazards, defeating enemies, and pursuing Jerry toward the end of each area.
Progression is based on completing stages in sequence. The Genesis version is a single-player adventure with straightforward level design and no documented character-switching system or substantial alternate mode.
