Kung-fu movie buffs will appreciate this title, as it closely resembles The 36th Chamber of Shaolin.
You follow the journey of a young disciple training in the famous Buddhist temple. To test your worth, your master subjects you to six trials. In practical terms, these are six mini-games designed to assess your fighting skills, represented by four stats: balance, strength, defense, and constitution. The better you perform in this opening phase, the more capable your avatar will becomes later on. You can save your character after this training phase, just before diving into the real action: the fights. And that’s where things get a bit disappointing, because the moves are few, not very spectacular, and most importantly, all the characters look exactly the same. Same issue in two-player mode.
