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.

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.
