[edit] Gameplay
Unlike the original this one puts you in a small world in which you can go freely from one area to another. In this game it's not like the other in which you are given all types of environments. Instead you choose missions and do them. You cross from place to place on a Jeep. There are a few locations like the sewer and crocodile farm that you can enter and are somewhat large though.
[edit] Story
[edit] Prologue
"Long ago, a great battle was fought. Boss Cass sought out five mystic talismans so he could banish every warm-blooded creature to the Dreaming. But, one brave soul stood up to Cass, and thwarted his quest for the talismans. He risked all in an effort to save his family and friends, and in the end, he succeeded. Cass was banished for his crimes, and the land was made safe once again. All thanks to one lone hero, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger."
[edit] Now...
One day Ty and Shazza were driving when ranger Ken tells him Boss Cass, the evil Cassowary who imprisoned Ty's parents long ago, has escaped from Currawong Jail and has hatched a plan to take over the world with an army of Uber Reptiles. But to power them he needs the warm-blooded energy of mammals. Dennis, the Green Tree Frog, has formed "Bush Rescue", an organization to stop Cass. It won't be easy for Ty to get to him, because after Boss Cass escaped he set up his own country called Cassopolis and claims he has diplomatic immunity. Cass then mixes koalas with the frilles and makes stronger enemies.
