Excellent Remake of the Original 
By: Kung Fu Master Fan - Sep 30, 2009
Version: 2.0
This is just a terrific version of the 1984 arcade hit "Kung Fu Master". The update includes a newer version which is just as fun as the very true to original retro version. My seven year old daughter loves it as much as her 42 daddy. This game really brings me back to the golden age of arcade. Kung Fu Master and Yie Ar Kung Fu are the basis for all the subsequent fighter games. GO BUY THIS GAME!! Well worth it at twice the price.
Classic gameplay meets innovative controls

Version: 1.2
This game offers a well know, rock-solid arcade beat-em-up experience with some good controls well suited for the device. By separating the directions of movements and blows into separate keys, the game allows very fast reactions to enemy attacks, very much needed since it can get quite tough! However, a traditioanl d-pad with single contextual button is also available to satisfy who prefers traditional controls.
The game has three difficulty levels and an online leaderboard in order to effectively increase the replay value.
All in all, a great package well worth the price, possibly the best side-scroller beat-em-up on the platform.

I loved this game back in the day. It even has a little blood in it when you kick an enemy now. You can definately get used to these controls with some practice but i think an optional d-pad is a must for better reaction time. An in game pause button would be nice also but overall a pretty good old school game here.
Great

Good remake of an old nintendo game
Great start

What a blast from the past! One of my favorite games as a kid on my iPhone. A d-pad is an update must. If you did that I would change my rating. But, as of now the control scheme is awful. Looking forward to an update.
