The NES of Jackie Chan Action Kung Fu shares a lot of similarities with its TG16 big brother, and while the basic level themes are the same, their layouts differ. It is your basic 2D action sidescrolling platformer where you beat up the bad guys and save your girl.

(the TG16 and NES version side by side)

The basic plot is that you are on a walk one day with your girlfriend Priscilla when an evil magician comes along and kidnaps her. Your goal is to make it through the stages, fight the bosses, and get your girl back. Along the way you can access special bonus levels by finding the hidden bells located throughout the levels. Here you can rack up extra men, regain health and extra power. For only having 2 buttons, and one of them being Jump, there are quite a few moves in your arsenal. Without the special icons you can perform Flying Jump Kicks, Sweeps, Punches and a Fireball. Then by beating a Frog you can get special icons that give you even more moves by pressing UP+Attack. A complete list of these moves and their icons will be up eventually.
