Legend of the Dragon Fist

Legend of the Dragon Fist Walkthrough

Legend of the Dragon Fist is the first game in the Dragon Fist series of fighting games. This fighting game features eight characters, simple controls, soundbites from old kung fu movies, and a two-player mode that allows you to duke it out against a friend on the same computer!

The objective of Legend of the Dragon Fist is the same as other fighting games such as Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, defeat your enemy by depleting their health bar while preventing your own defeat! You can play against the computer where you will face opponents one after the other, or play against a human opponent sing the same computer. This fighting game does not feature saving and does not feature passwords to continue like its sequels, but there are cheat codes that you can enter if you wish. I won't give the cheat codes here though, since that would ruin the challenge of the game! It is better to struggle through hardships and savor your victory after practicing rather than cheating.

Legend of the Dragon Fist features eight unique characters. These characters are well-balanced in general, but they each have their own unique attacks and special moves. Dragon Guard is an excellent character for beginners since his sword has a greater reach than most characters' punches and kicks. Ninja is also a good character since his special ability, the shuriken, is one of few projective attacks in the game. Finally, Green Serpent is a great character for defensive players. His special ability is an electric aura similar to the electrical attack of Blanka from Street Fighter.

Unlike most fighting games, your special bar automatically increases over time. Hitting your enemy, blocking attacks, and taking hits does not cause the special bar to increase any faster. When the bar is full, you may press the punch and kick keys together to activate your fighter's special ability. Do not be ashamed to spam this attack as soon as it becomes available since your special bar will recharge at the same rate.

Legend of the Dragon Fist is a well-made fighting game with simple graphics, great controls, and humor which is to be expected from Ben Olding Games. Do you have what it takes to become a martial arts master? Find out in Legend of the Dragon Fist!
