Oriental Hero

Ah soo! Ret us return to ancient times, glasshopper, to a far off legion in Outer Mongolia where a stlanger has appeared and is after the title of Supleme Oliental Combat Master. Tly saying that with a mouth full of No 47 soy sauce. You are that masked stranger, and you must fight your way through four rounds of intense combat training.

At the end of each round you'll fight one of the masters but unfortunately you only have an armoury of three kicks to help you win through and basically you've got no chance.

This follow up to Ninja Master - probably the most successful trash title of all time - is all so fast, though, that winning starts being a matter of luck.

Overall Summary

Follow-up to the very appalling Ninja Master. This one's so fast there's more luck than skill involved.
