The World of Kung Fu: Dragon and Eagle (2024)
ChillyRoom
A nostalgic pixel RPG that tells a Wuxia fantasy set in ancient China. You will start as a no-name wayfarer in a world of Kungfu, acquaint yourself with journeymen from feuding clans and sects, learn different schools of martial arts, and eventually make your own name at the crossroads of times.
About the story
The game is set in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty (1150 AD) when the Southern Han people formed the Song country in the south, and the Jurchen people formed the Jin country in the north, leading to conflict. At the same time, the Western Liao, Western Xia, Tubo, and Dali kingdoms were scattered around the periphery, making it a turbulent time in China and a common era for Chinese martial arts stories. It is also a historical period where Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism flourished in Chinese history. Players assume the role of a novice in the martial arts world and become embroiled in major events, ultimately changing the course of the martial arts world.

Critic Reviews
Pure Nintendo
By Kirk HinerThe turn-based RPG The World of Kungfu: Dragon and Eagle is in equal parts clever and frustrating. The unique approach to combat, team building, and customization is fun and perfectly set up for multiple playthroughs. Story progression is often aimless, however, and the gameplay idiosyncracies could be better explained.
RPG Fan
By Sean CabotAn unfinished disappointment that's too fractured to be good and too much of a slog to laugh at.
