Big
Trouble In Little China
From: Electric Dreams
Year: 1987
Format: Amstrad CPC
The team go for a long walk in a westerly direction (left) and then they come across a
ninja! Wow (right)
Comments:
A scrolling beat-em-up based on the John Carpenter movie. You control the three main characters, Jack Burton, Wang and Egg Shen. The screen scrolls right-left with enemies suddenly appearing. When this happens the character at the front of the line must fight them or you can change character if necessary. The graphics are poor by Amstrad standards and the constant scrolling (there is no break between levels, the new background just scrolls on) makes the game monotonous and dull. The idea is to walk all the way from China Town to Lo Pan's hide out (via the sewers and other places) without any of the team dieing, you need all three to defeat Lo Pan.
