THE GAME

It was just twenty years ago that LEE, the Kung Fu master, wiped out the dastardly Chop Suey Gang. But... one member of the gang managed to survive - YEN PEI.

YEN PEI now calls himself the Yie Gah Emperor, and with his seven warlords and their retainers, he has extended his evil influence throughout China. LEE's son, LEE YOUNG, has come forth to meet this evil emperor.

To the deadly killing arts of Kung Fu which he learned from his father, he has added his own special techniques, based on OO-LONG TEA POWER and CHOW MEIN NOODLE POWER!!

Help LEE YOUNG to use his Kung Fu agains the Yie Gah Emperor!!

The Opponents you will have to face in order to rid China of this terrible gang, are:

1 YEN PEI (IRON PIGTAILS)
2 LANG FANG (FANS)
3 PO CHIN (FIRE BREATHER)
4 WEN HU (FLYING MASK)
5 WEN CHIN (BOOMERANGS)
6 MEI LING (DAGGERS)
7 HAN CHEN (BOMBS)
8 LI JEN (LIGHTNING BOLTS)

This game may be played alone or by two players simultaneously.

You control the action with joystick(s), player 1 port 1, player 2 port 2.

First use the joustick to select the type of game you wish to play, and press the fire button.

You begin the game with three "LEE'S". If you score 20,000 points you will get an additional "LEE" to fight with. Score another 50,000 points and you get one more.

If one of your attacking moves connects with your opponent, in addition to your scoring points, his energy level, or KO, will diminish. When your opponent's KO is all gone, you have defeated him.

If an opponent's technique is effective on LEE he loses part of his own energy or KO. When one LEE loses all of his energy he is defeated.

The game begins with an attack of a squadron of midget fighters... try to move the left of your screen while defeating them. Four scenes await you, each with its own evil warlord ready to finish LEE off.

Two players simultaneously: a) Player 1 is LEE YOUNG.
b) Player 2 is LEE's opponent. Select from among the Iron Pigtail, the Fan Fighter, or the Fire Breather!
c) Press Fire to start game after selecting LEE's opponent.
d) The best two out of three matches wins; the first player to win two matches is the champ.

Once you have enough for a cup of tea, press the COMMODORE key while the game is in progress and you will get a new supply of energy. You can have up to three cups of Oo-Long tea in any one game.

2 CHOW MEIN NOODLE POWER: Somewhere in the background of each scene is a bowl of Chow Mein. If you can find the Chow Main noodles, this will make you invincible for a few valuable seconds.

SOUNDS or EFFECTS

During the game you will be able to hear either the sound effects or the music. Use the 'S' key on the keyboard to toggle between Music & Sound effects.

HINTS AND TIPS

When you are playing the game always try to keep a supply of tea cups as this will help you in the latter stages of the game. If possible always try to get the Chow Mein noodles as this is also vital in the latter stages.
