  • Summary: Meet TY, a fearless Tasmanian tiger in the wild and untamed Australian wilderness. Skilled in the art of boomerang combat, TY not only survives the dangerous Australian Outback, he runs, jumps, swims, and glides through it. As TY, you'll encounter more than 50 wild characters based on real-life indigenous animals of Australia. Not all of them are nice--so give your enemies a taste of eight different boomerangs. When you're not busy in combat, you'll solve puzzles, collect items, and participate in races. Expand

    It's a fun romp that often lacks originality.

    It's a fun romp that often lacks originality.
  3. The joy in this game comes from the environments. Krome Studios has done a fantastic job of making the different locals feel alive.
  4. The real trouble with Ty, however, lies in its camera. Ty dashes at a frenetic pace while the camera does a poor job of keeping up. [Winter 2002, p.103]

    Great platformer type game. Lots of things to collect. Very australian... and very cool varied graphics. Game is not too difficult to complete (probably because it's aimed for children). I hope there is a follow-up to this cool character. Expand
