Kung Fu Strike is an indie game from Qooc soft. It puts you in control of General Loh, who is out to avenge his Father’s death while China is being torn apart by its warring factions. The story is told through an illustrated scroll with minor captions underneath guiding you from one mission to the next. Each of the missions is arena based (with multiple enemies to defeat) and, although the game is a combo based beat-em up, it has depth in its simplicity.
Game Critics: Very few games actually make me want to take my console or computer and chuck it out a window in sheer fury. Kung Fu Strike: The Warrior's Rise not only pushed me to that point , but did with regularity. The game's Steam page may sound like it's boasting when it claims that the game proves a challenge even on Easy, but it's not. Kung Fu Strike is hard: unrelentingly, unremittingly, and unforgivingly hard.
IVG: I did enjoy Kung Fu Strike for a while, but at 800 MS Points a pop, I would be hard pressed to recommend buying it. There are better XBLA titles out there that could use those points.
The first round begins and already Kung Fu Strike is starting out behind the eight ball. By providing limited to no story, Kung Fu Strike gets caught with a roundhouse to the gut as it fails to keep the gamers caught up in the reason for all this fighting. There are no stories about having to defend your temple and honor against an onslaught of Kung Fu competition, no stories about rouge fighters and their love interests that turn into revenge.
Great review!
This game is a lot of fun it really surprised me! I hope more people check it out
