Personal review

Excellent one-on-one fighting game. This game used 'Mode 5' graphics, which meant only 4 colours could be used. In retrospect, all BBC Micro games should have been written to take advantage of Shadow Ram, which permitted bigger, 'Mode 2' games. Not many companies had the resources to do so and instead tried to write games that covered the multitude of Acorn 8-bit computers, which compromised the potential of many games.
