Yie Ar Kung-Fu arcade conversion to the Amstrad CPC - review and longplay.

Oolong must fight 10 martial art masters before finally facing his clone and deadliest enemy Blues to win the title of "Grand Master" and honor the memory of his father.

One of the 1st 1v1 fighters with a large array of moves and attacks.. this set the basis for modern fighting games, Street Fighter II owes a lot to this!

This is almost an arcade-perfect conversion except for the fact that it's missing 3 of the fighters sadly :(

I did attempt to try and do a perfect run, I didn't quite succeed but this is how you defeat the fighters which most are only susceptible to a 2 maybe 3 moves and it's up to you work this out!

Only thing I didn't mention in the commentary is that the 2 player option is turn based just like in the arcade original (so you can't fight against a mate).
