Black Belt

You're a BLACK BELT master - one of the best - and you'll have plenty of chances to prove it.

What's Happening

KYOKO, your beautiful Japanese girlfriend, has gotten herself into a beautiful Japanese mess. In order to rescue her, you must first get through a tireless army of enemies.

They're mean. They're like machines. And some of them are armed. With whips, knives, swords, even flamethrowers. Plus, your arch rival, Want, is as skilled a Master as you are.

Fight smart. And fight hard. Your only weapon is your well-trained, fine-tuned, martial arts body.

Who's Who

You're Riki. The good guy in the white gi. Everyone else is the enemy. There are the little guys. Like Chinese Kung Fu men, wrestlers, Jujitsu men in red, the Eagles, the Ninja and the dark women.

Then there are the big guys. Like Ryu, a Kung Fu master. Hawk, a whip and knife slinger. Gonta, the Jujitsu man in black. ONI, the Ninja with a red whip and red sword. Rita, the flamethrower. And finally, Wang, the Kung Fu master with the same training as yours.

They all have their own special strengths. And their personal weaknesses. Try to avoid the strengths. And attack the weaknesses. To give yourself a fighting chance to come out on top.

At the beginning of each game you get three lives. When you lose all of them, the game is over.

There are two ways in which you can lose a life:

2.) Your time runs out before all the enemies in the round are destroyed.

You'll receive an additional life at 100,000 and 300,00 points.

Helpful Hints

Don't use PUNCHES or KICKS thoughtlessly. Skillful players will learn to apply them at just the right moment.

Try to figure out which technique -- punching, kicking or high-kicking -- works best against which enemies. Most enemies, like RYU, HAWK and GONTA, have definite weak points. Try to find them.

When fighing ONI, look for the perfect moment to catch him off guard.

Keep in mind that RITA's weak point is a moving target.

Learn how to handle WANG. He has no weak points. And he's tirelessly persistent.

If you learn to destroy the flying enemies by JUMPING, you'll be in for a special treat.
