Kung Fu Kid

Do battle oriental-style with the Emperor To-Ming's minions, and battle your way up the skill grades.

At the end of each level, do battle with the Emperor's guardian lizard before going on to prove your skill in the next. Not much room for fighting-skill here, a small amount of luck goes a long way.

Devilishly difficult, but I found the game rather boring and meaningless (senseless violence just ain't my scene, man).

The graphics are a bit crude, when your character moves in front of another, large chunks of graphics disappear!

Although the game is quite well presented, I think the poor graphics let it down.
