List
Computer game
Tom & Jerry (also known as Tom & Jerry: Hunting High and Low) was released for Amiga, Atari ST, and Commodore 64 computers in 1989 by Magic Bytes. Another game with identical gameplay, Tom & Jerry 2, was also released that year for the same platforms and the MSX, Amstrad CPC, and ZX Spectrum home computers.
NES/MS-DOS game
- A Tom and Jerry video game (also known as Tom and Jerry: The Ultimate Game of Cat and Mouse! or Tom and Jerry (and Tuffy)) was released by Hi Tech Expressions for the Nintendo Entertainment System on December 3, 1991[3] and for MS-DOS in 1993. Tom has mouse-napped Jerry's nephew Tuffy and locked him in a trunk in the attic. Usable weapons include bubble gum, meat cleaver, cups of water, moth balls, hammer, invisible ink and drill.
- Tom and Jerry: Yankee Doodle's CAT-astrophe was released for the PC in 1990, also by Hi Tech Expressions.
Game Boy games

- Tom and Jerry: Frantic Antics! is a video game based on the 1992 film Tom and Jerry: The Movie. The game was released on October 2, 1992[8] for the Game Boy and in December 1993[9] for the Genesis.
Sega game

Super NES game
A Tom and Jerry video game was released for the Super NES by Hi Tech Expressions in April 1993 in the US and by Altron on June 25, 1993 in Japan. The player controls Jerry, the mouse, as he traverses through four different themed worlds – a movie theater, a junkyard, a toy store, and a house. Tuffy is playable through second player.
Jerry or Tuffy use marbles as weapons. At the end of each world, Jerry goes into a battle with Tom, the cat.
Entertainment Weekly gave the game a B and wrote that "The competent yet often uninspired Hanna-Barbera cartoon series is now a competent yet often uninspired video game. In Tom & Jerry (Hi Tech Expressions, for Super NES), very small players may get a kick out of guiding mouse Jerry through nemesis Tom's none-too-wily traps."[23]
