The Game
|
||
|
||
The game begins after you have made a long, hard climb up the rocky cliff
|
||
beneath Akuma's castle. You pull yourself up onto solid ground only to find
|
||
yourself standing before a massive gateway, your way barred by the first of the
|
||
palace guards. Beyond the gateway, Akuma's palace looms in the distance. The
|
||
row of orange arrows running across the bottom left of the screen tells you how
|
||
many hits you can withstand. Every time you get hit, you lose one arrow. If
|
||
your last arrow disappear, you DIE. When you are not getting hit, your arrows
|
||
are gradually repenished. The row of blue arrows the bottom right gives you the
|
||
same information about your enemy.
|
||
|
||
Every guard has his own fighting style and can be identified by his headgear.
|
||
As a rule, the guards get tougher as you get farther into the palace.
|
||
|
||
When you kill a guard, take advantage of the opportunity and run. Your
|
||
objective is to rescue the Princess Mariko, not to waste time sparring with
|
||
flunkies.
|
||
|
||
When you stand up, you drop your guard, leaving yourself extremely vulnerable
|
||
to attack-a single well-armed blow may kill you-so be especially alert for signs
|
||
of danger when you are standing or running.
