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 against the Yie Gah Emperor!!

HOW TO PLAY

This game may be played alone or by two players simultaneously.
You control the action with either your computer keyboard or with a joystick.
First use the keyboard to select either joystick or keyboard control. Then use the keyboard
to select one or two players. The game will then begin automatically.
You begin the game with three "LEE'S". 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 your scoring points, his energy level, or KO, will
his energy level, or Ki will diminish. When your opponent's Ki is all gone, you have defeated
him!
If an opponents technique is effective on LEE, LEE loses part of his own energy or Ki.
When one LEE loses all of his energy, he is OUT.
The game begins with an attack of a squadron of midget fighters. Try to move the left of

ready to finish LEE off.

Once you have enough for a cup of tea, press the T key while the game is in

tea in any one game.
CHOW MEIN NOODLE POWER: Somewhere in the background of each scene is a bowl
