Pick your fighter with the arrow keys and press low punch (**Z** ), then choose a tower of opponents the same way. 4. Win two rounds against each opponent to climb the tower. 5. When the screen says FINISH HIM or FINISH HER, you have a moment to perform a finishing move. ## Controls The game uses the six-button Mega Drive pad, laid out the way the cartridge expects it (you can check it in OPTIONS, JOY STICK). **Computer:** arrow keys move, jump and crouch. Top row: **A** high punch, **S** run, **D** high kick. Bottom row: **Z** low punch, **X** block, **C** low kick. Enter is Start and pauses. Move the mouse over the game to show the bar with pause, restart, sound, save state, load state and full screen buttons. **Phone and tablet:** the pad under the game has HP, Run and HK on the top row, LP, BL (block) and LK below, and Start.

A small panel opens over the game, and the game waits until you close it. - **Unlimited energy:** your energy bar stays full. - **Weak opponent:** the opponent has almost no energy, so one clean hit wins the round. - **Infinite time:** the round clock never runs out.
