Yie Ar Kung-Fu

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

An early Konami arcade classic that helped lay the foundation for modern fighting games: as kung-fu fighter Lee, you defeat a series of opponents with different weapons and styles in short, reflex-driven duels.

Karateka

Vast, open spaces

You fight your way through feudal Japan as a lone martial artist to rescue Mariko from the warlord Akuma. This remake brings the 1984 classic into modern visuals, built around direct, timing-based fights and a stripped-down, focused feel.

Sengoku

Boss fights as highlights

A classic side-scrolling arcade beat-'em-up in which a powerful warrior fights ghosts and demons from Japan's past who threaten to overrun the present day.

Ninja Gaiden II

Boss fights as highlights

A blisteringly fast and brutal hack-and-slash in which you play ninja Ryu Hayabusa, carving through enemy hordes with gory combos and evasive moves. The combat is punishing and rewards precision and aggression.

One Strike

Boss fights as highlights

One Strike is a fast duel fighter inspired by Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, where every fight is win-or-die. Precise timing decides whether you survive and build your reputation as a legend.

One Finger Death Punch 2

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A lightning-fast stickman kung-fu brawler played with just two buttons, built around precise timing and reflexes. Fights feel like choreographed martial-arts movies as you chew through waves of enemies.

Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae

Vast, open spaces

A fast arena hack-and-slash where you cut through waves of demons with katana slashes and hand-to-hand moves. You wound enemies first, then sheathe your sword for a stylish finishing blow.

Story of a Gladiator

Vast, open spaces

You play a man searching for his destiny, which you end up finding in the sand of a Roman arena. The game keeps things simple with direct, brawling arena fights in the style of a beat 'em up.

Splatterhouse

Boss fights as highlights

A classic arcade beat 'em up where you brawl through a cursed mansion as Rick, empowered by the Terror Mask. Gory horror in the vein of Friday the 13th and Evil Dead 2 meets tough, linear action.
