What can I say that has not already been said about the majesty that is Hong Kong Phooey's Karate Challenge? It marries nostalgia with iconic characters with an intuitive, yet deep combat system. The overall narrative is about Bugs Bunny (your main character), a small town fighter who battles his way through the ranks of famous cartoon characters, whilst under the wizened watchful gaze of the Master Hong Kong Phooey himself. The story of the game is relevant to modern day issues about political agendas, racial conflict, the question of what humanity truly is and our role in society in a technologically advancing world. I wont spoil the ending, but I will say it has a mix of bittersweet thrown together with slapstick comedy and the fantastical. Hong Kong Phooey has set a new standard for the gaming industry.
