Ty the Tasmanian Tiger (Nintendo GameCube, 2002)

Product Specs

Description

A 3D platform game set in the Australian Outback, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger offers players the chance to guide a boomerang-throwing carnivore on a quest to reunite with others of his species. Once Ty learns of a secret portal leading to a world of imprisoned Tasmanian Tigers, including members of his own family, he embarks on an outdoor adventure spanning four regions: rainforest, snow-capped mountains, desert, and barrier reef. In addition to tossing boomerangs, Ty can chomp, run, glide, and swim to defeat potential threats or to advance through an area. Standing in the way of Ty's progress are 50 types of Australian animals, including a cantankerous cassowary named Boss Cass. A variety of mini-games are sprinkled into the adventure, from collecting certain items within a time limit to herding animals into specially designated areas.
