Double Dragon

Overview

A side-scrolling beat 'em up where players control martial artists Billy and Jimmy Lee to rescue Billy's girlfriend Marian from the Black Warriors gang.

How to Play

Your goal is to fight through city streets and enemy hideouts to defeat the final boss and rescue Marian. You move your character left and right, using a punch button and a jump button. By combining jump with punch, you can perform a jumping kick. You can also grab enemies after punching them and execute throws or elbow attacks. Defeated enemies sometimes drop weapons like whips and baseball bats, which you can pick up and use for more powerful attacks. The game features both single-player and two-player cooperative modes, though the two-player mode becomes competitive in later stages where you must fight each other. In the early stages, focus on learning the attack patterns of basic enemies and mastering the timing of your throws. As you progress, you'll face enemies with projectile weapons and faster attacks, so use your environment and picked-up weapons strategically. During tense moments, especially against bosses, keep your distance, wait for openings, and use jumping kicks to avoid damage while attacking.
