Personal review

Conversions of the arcade game "Yie Ar Kung-Fu" can be put into two different groups. The first group of conversions tried to put the actual arcade levels and opponents into the game. The second group of conversions limited itself to only one background and less opponents. The Famicom/NES version sadly belongs to the second group. Fighting games surely were a rare sight in 1985 but the controls are not the best and the game feels rather repetitive, much more so than the actual arcade game.

Editor note

Despite the name, this game has little in common with its similarly-titled arcade brother. The characters, background, and music are completely different, though the gameplay remains largely the same.
