Tiger Claw
Description
Tiger ClawĀ is a modern update of the classic Commodore 64 gameĀ Bruce Lee. Throughout its 24 screens, four stolen magic scrolls must be retrieved to finish the game.
Each screen is littered with platforms and ladders. Fighters, Daemons, Ninjas, Hounds or Birds randomly appear on screen which can be avoided or kicked out with karate chops.
