Instructions

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 against the Yie Gah Emperor!!

How To Play

You begin the game with three "LEEs". If you score 20,000 points then you get an additional "LEE". After 50,000 points you get one more "LEE".

If one of your techniques connects with your opponent, in addition to you scoring points, his energy level, or Ki, will dimish. When your opponent's Ki is all gone, you have defeated him!

If an opponent's technique is effective on your LEE, LEE loses part of his own energy or Ki.

When one LEE loses all his energy, he is OUT.

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

Improve your fighting techniques:

OO-LONG TEA POWER. If you knock out a complete formation of three midget attackers, you get one tea leaf. In you can give tea leaves, this is enough for a cup of Oo-Long tea. Once you have enough, if you press the T key while the game is in progress, you will get a new supply of energy. You can have up to three cups of Oo-Long tea in any one game.

CHOW MEIN NOODLE POWER. Somewhere in the background of each scene is a bowl of Chow Mein which you can get after making an attack. If you can find the Chow Mein noodles, this will make you invincible for a few valuable seconds. After eating the Chow Mein noodles, immunity to attack is indicated by a sound.
