Personal review
In Super Chinese you play the role of a martial arts guy on his way to rescue a princess. He has to fight his way through 8 palaces, each consisting of 4 screens, making for a total of 32 levels. In each screen you have to kill about twelve enemies so that the door to the next screen opens up. Punching blocks might reveal some extras or even give access to a bonus stage. Each enemy has its own way to defeat, some can be punched, some only die by kick-jumping, and yet others only die by slaying them with a sword (which must be found first). The game suffers from bad hit detection and I wonder why Culture Brain decided to release a merely mediocre game from 1986 three years later in the US. At least the two-player cooperative mode can be quite fun and makes the game a bit easier.
