Kung Fu HeroS is one of those NES games that looks simple at first—just two martial artists kicking their way through monster-filled castles—but man, it gets intense fast. You pick either Jacky or Lee (I always went with Lee, his kicks felt snappier) and dive straight into these tight, single-screen rooms packed with enemies. And not just any enemies—we're talking bazooka guys taking potshots, creepy coffin dudes that trap you, and these massive Bison Commandos who just won’t go down no matter how many times you hit them.

The goal’s straightforward: clear enough enemies to unlock the next room, fight your way through all four, then take on the castle boss. But the way everything swarms you makes it feel like a proper kung fu scramble. You’ll duck under bullets, kick snakes mid-slither, and pray you don’t get cornered by a coffin. And yeah, the princess and treasures are the big story, but honestly? Half the fun is just surviving the chaos room by room.

It’s got that classic NES charm where every pixel feels deliberate, and every death teaches you something. Just don’t be surprised if you yell at the screen a few times.
