Some of the coolest Backgrounds in any Fighting Game. You can destroy the Walls of the Stage which is the coolest thing I've seen in my entire life. For example: In the Haunted House Stage you destroy the Wall to break into a Secret Labratory. Coolio! The Floor also takes damage which is a nice detail.

Some of the super inputs are wild though

Mas é claro que a Taito fez um clone de Street Fighter 2! Esse é o tipo de coisa que é óbvia se refletirmos um pouco (que empresa focada em games de arcade não fez um clone de SF2 nos 1990?), mas não deixei de ficar um pouco surpreso quando me deparei com Kaiser Knuckle.

O fato de um jogo de luta da Taito ser meio semi-desconhecido já deixa um tanto na cara que ele não é lá muito bom - afinal, a Taito não deixaria de capitalizar e fazer mil e uma sequências desse game se ele tivesse feito sucesso. Ele é um clone quase completamente derivativo, seja na seleção de personagens, mecânicas, golpes, estágios, enredo ou identidade visual. Para não dizer que é puro plágio, tem um lance bacana de você destruir as paredes/limites dos estágios e ver outras partes da arena e... É, só isso.

Não obstante, achei interessante ver mais um artefato de como os arcade games e developers corriam loucamente atrás da "moda da vez".

Taito was always progressive with their arcade games! This one is no exception. This game was ahead of its time with the breakable stage backgrounds and transitions. The OST Composed by YAsuhisa Watanabe slaps as well. I'm amazed at how well the sound comes out in this game also! Taito is a really unique company and this game just shows what they were capable of. The only problem is the main game is kinda mediocre and the game came out when there were better fighting games to choose from so it kinda got left under the dust. Also, the final boss of this game is hell. Play Den-Ku-Ga instead way better than this
