Kung Fu Kid

KUNG FU KID 





Original Release: Sega, Master System, 1987

A sort of hybrid of the play styles and themes of Kung Fu Master and Yie Ar Kung Fu, in a follow-up to the obscure Dragon Wang

Review by: C. M0use



Kung Fu Kid is pretty much a clone of Irem's Kung Fu Master, and not a particularly good one. Instead of Chinese Huggers charging at you to hug your health away, you get shirtless bald guys instead. And instead of going through a Game of Death in some dojo, you traverse a variety of outdoor areas. 

The gameplay is pretty bad, though, and it becomes a better strategy to simply have Kung Fu Kid use his crazy ups (seemingly inherited from Yie Ar Kung Fu) to jump through every level instead of actually trying to fight all the enemies.
