Tom and Jerry Tales on the GBA is exactly what you'd expect—chaotic, fast, and full of cheese. You play as Jerry, sneaking around classic cartoon-style levels while Tom tries to swat, pounce, or just generally ruin your day. The controls are simple, but dodging his traps gets tricky when you're scrambling for cheese wedges.

It nails that slapstick vibe from the show—Tom smashes through walls, Jerry barely slips past his claws, and everything feels like a frantic chase scene. Some levels have you outsmarting him with gadgets, others are pure evasion. Not gonna lie, the first time I got caught in a mousetrap, I laughed way harder than I should've.

If you grew up with the cartoons, this one's a nostalgia trip with just enough challenge to keep it from feeling like a lazy tie-in. Tom’s AI isn’t genius-level, but he’s persistent enough to make you sweat when you’re down to your last life.
