Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue for the Game Boy Advance is an action-packed sequel that brings the Australian Outback to life in a dedicated 2D side-scrolling format. Developed by Halfbrick Studios, this version reimagines the open-world console adventure as a fast-paced platformer where Ty and his newly formed "Bush Rescue" team must stop the evil Boss Cass and his army of Uber Reptiles.
