Jackie Chan Adventures
Jackie Chan Adventures is based on the hit kid's action cartoon of the same name, which features Jackie as an ancient artifact expert and special agent for the government's secret "Section 13". Jade, his 11-year-old tomboy niece quickly becomes his apprentice and partner as they scour the globe looking for sacred talismans and protecting the planet from ancient Chinese demons. Jackie Chan Adventures follows the story of the cartoon series very closely, as Jackie's Uncle sends him to recover 12 ancient talismans. Each talisman unlocks new powers for Jackie, allowing him to access new areas within the game world. A bonus EyeToy mini-game is included.

Description
About This Game
The Jackie Chan Adventures video game series is based upon the animated series Jackie Chan Adventures.
The Game Boy Advance game, entitled Jackie Chan Adventures: Legend of the Dark Hand, was developed by Torus Games and published by Activision, and released in 2001. The PlayStation 2 version was developed by Atomic Planet Entertainment and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, and released on October 1, 2004 in Europe. The latter console version is compatible with the EyeToy. Jackie, Jade, Uncle, Valmont and Shendu were voiced by their original actors.
On May 11, 2005, Hip Games (a subsidiary of Hip Interactive) announced it would be publishing the PS2 version for North America, and the game was featured at E3 2005 as a part of their lineup. However, in July of that same year, Hip Interactive went bankrupt, and no one else picked up the PS2 title for a North American release.
