Game Overview

Bruce Lee Lives: The Fall of Hong Kong Palace came out in 1989 as part of the MS-DOS Classic Games series, published by The Software Toolworks. It was one of those side-scrolling action games that felt right at home on a beige desktop tower, back when keyboard controls were the norm and every game demanded a little memorization. You step into the shoes of Bruce Lee, tasked with rescuing a kidnapped princess from the clutches of an evil crime lord.

You control Bruce through a series of urban and palace environments, fighting thugs and martial artists across single-screen stages. The main objective is straightforward: clear each area of enemies and progress toward the final confrontation. Signature mechanics include a combo-based fighting system where repeating the same moves makes opponents counter you more effectively, and environmental interactions like breaking objects for points or occasional power-ups. The pacing is brisk, and the difficulty can spike sharply if you don't vary your attacks. It feels like a test of both reflexes and adaptability, especially when the enemy AI anticipates your next move.


Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
