Description official descriptions

TY the Tasmanian Tiger 2 is a 3D Platformer with an Australian theme. The player takes the role of TY, a Tasmanian tiger, armed with sharp teeth and boomerangs a-plenty. On TY's quest to defeat the evil Boss Cass and his army of cold-blooded Frilled Lizards, he must assist the colorful residents of Burramudgee Town and the Southern Rivers, who include a tree frog, a lyre bird, a platypus family, some kangaroos and more koalas than you can shake a didgeridoo at.

While most of the game is standard platform fare, there are some diversions. Notably, there are a number of cart racing tracks which can be played with a friend. Additionally, there are missions that will place the player in giant robots, each with a different speciality (one is good at battle, one can put out fires, one is a submarine, etc.).

There are many comedic quirks, having the players throw electrified boomerangs at robotic dinosaurs in the Outback, then send them up in a helicopter to rescue sheep stranded by a flood, then have them clear a road following a traffic accident. And finally, to top it all off, the save/continue points are outhouses.

A Great Platformer Game For All U All

The Good
I don't think that any other game that have characters speak in such thick Australian accent. Gaming of the game is great fun too. Also expect yourself to listen memorable background music, see the beautiful Australia outback, collecting many items and laugh out loud to the funny lines in the game.

The Bad
Long distance between ending place of a level and the starting of another mission? Check. Figuring how the heck to finish the levels without instructions given? Check. Expensive sold items? Check. Too childish for some teenager gamers? Check check.

The Bottom Line
Okay okay I know. This game may seen like a crap if u don't play it. But don't judge the book by its cover. This game may not impress die hard, hardcore fans but this game may entertain the young and beginner platformer gamers. Even I personally think that this game is better compared the first one which was released at 2002 by EA. So i say, give this game a shot alright, mate. Rating:3/5
