Wild Fang / Tecmo Knight

Wild Fang, also known as Tecmo Knight, is a unique and intense arcade side-scrolling action game developed by Tecmo. The game casts players as a gigantic, powerful warrior capable of dealing massive damage but moving relatively slowly. A distinctive feature of Wild Fang is that players not only control the large main character but also a smaller, more agile companion who assists in battle.

Gameplay in Wild Fang focuses on combating hordes of fierce monsters that appear on screen. The large main character uses powerful punches and swings to dispatch enemies, while the smaller companion is capable of faster attacks, nimble jumps, and collecting items. The harmonious coordination between these two characters is key to overcoming challenges.

Throughout the levels, players will encounter various types of enemies, from small goblins and mutated creatures to giant demons and formidable bosses. Each stage features a distinct setting, ranging from dense forests and dark caves to ancient castles. Players can collect power-up items such as new weapons, armor, or special magic, enhancing their combat capabilities.

The combat system in Wild Fang demands quick reflexes and good positional management, especially when dealing with a large number of enemies. The game also supports a two-player mode, where each player controls a pair of warriors (the large warrior and their small companion), leading to highly engaging cooperative battles and increasing replay value.

With its characteristic 90s pixel art graphics and vibrant sound, Wild Fang delivers a captivating classic arcade experience, making it a memorable title for fans of the beat 'em up genre.
