comment |
T'ai Fu: Wrath of the Tiger is a 1999 Action Game developed by DreamWorks Interactive and published by Activision.After the forces of the tyrannical Dragon Master lay waste to his temple home, attack the monks who took him in as an orphan, and leave him for dead, T'ai sets out to discover why the Dragon Master wanted him dead in the first place. Along the way, he encounters the other clans and learns their distinctive martial arts styles, learns more of his own heritage, and comes to understand that he may be China's last hope for freedom from the Dragon Master's evil reign.Also, the entire cast is composed of Funny Animals. This lends itself especially well to their kung-fu arts - the Leopard Clan can sprint along on all fours like their real-life counterparts, the Cranes can soar through the air on their wings, and T'ai Fu himself has a pretty sharp set of tiger claws to go with his martial arts.The game combines elements of platforming and fighting games as the player travels across mythical China. The fighting techniques you learn as you progress through the game can help you navigate the environment just as easily as they let you savage your enemies — you can leap, bounce, or glide across hazardous pitfalls, and use Chi bolts to activate mystical switches that raise bridges or open gates.Interestingly, DreamWorks Interactive's former sister company, DreamWorks Animation, went on to produce Kung Fu Panda, which uses a number of similar concepts. And Jeffrey Katzenberg worked on both titles. Make of that what you will. |

comment |
All There in the Manual: The manual has a lot of information and backstory that's only alluded to in the game proper, including: The history of each clan, and how the Dragon Master's reign has affected them. How certain enemies have distinct ranks in their masters' armies (Leopard Captains being the honor guard of Princess Lotus, for example). Greater insight on the characterizations of the supporting cast. The fact that the Dragon Master seeks to bring about a new race of Dragons by transforming his Snake warriors in magic rituals. |

| T'ai Fu: Wrath of the Tiger (Video Game) / int_1c3d047e |
comment |
The Rival: According to the manual, the Leopard Clan always envied the Tiger Clan for their mystical prowess, but nonetheless respected them. It's why the Leopard Master agrees to test T'ai Fu's worth when the latter comes asking for training, and it probably fuels Lotus's initial disregard for him. |

Playing with Fire: The Flame Chi scrolls set T'ai Fu's Chi projectiles aflame. Any foe struck by them will be lit aflame, suffering rapid damage over time—if the flames don't kill them outright, it usually only takes one hit to kill them afterwards. As the game itself states: "Why fight what you can burn?" |

Character Development: T'ai Fu starts off as a cocky rebel who thinks he can take on the world, but subtly matures into a wiser, more serious fighter as the story progresses. By the time he's learned of his clan's full history and confronts the Dragon Master, he's become quite solemn and intense. |

Rich Bitch: Lotus, the Leopard Princess—who, if the manual is anything to go by, is a feisty and arrogant warrior who's used to having her orders obeyed. |

Goomba Stomp: The Monkey Bounce Combo, which has T'ai curl up into a ball and bounce off his enemy's head. Especially effective against the Rat Pirate Captain and the Boar Boss. |

Making a Splash: The Water Chi scolls are an interesting case—while T'ai Fu's basic Chi Shot becomes a continuous high-pressure water spray with short range that can prove formidable against close-range foes, the Chi Blast becomes a wave of water that flattens every enemy on the screen in one go. |

Everything Fades : When eliminated, all enemies in the game become translucent for a second then vanish. Albeit only visible for a few frames before the screen goes black, T'ai himself fades away in an identical fashion when dying. |

Dishing Out Dirt: The Earth Chi scrolls are another situational power that can be deadly once mastered—while T'ai's Chi shot becomes a bouncing boulder subject to gravity, any foe struck by it is turned into a statue, allowing T'ai to smash them to pieces with his fists. |

Kung-Fu Wizard: The Dragon Master is a rather literal example, as he wields both deadly physical blows and elemental Chi in your battle with him. T'ai Fu might arguably be another example, as he also unleashes Chi attacks in addition to being a talented martial artist. |

Ki Manipulation: The cornerstone of the Mantis Style, which grants T'ai Fu the ability to project focused missiles of spirit energy or unleash a massive radial burst of power. It becomes even more lethal with Elemental Chi Scrolls. Other enemies that T'ai faces also have access to energy attacks—the Leopard Captains can use the Leaping Slam Fist to unleash a shockwave of red energy, the Stealth Vipers can spit a caustic yellow-orange stream of energy, the Statue Warriors can fire Chi Shots, and the Dragon Master uses almost all the Elemental Chi variations in the final battle. |

You Are Not Ready: When T'ai initially tries to break into the Forbidden Palace, the Mantis Master appears and warns that unless T'ai fully masters his skills, and learns the secrets of his Clan, he'll stand no chance against the Dragon Master. This is what prompts T'ai Fu to journey across the Great Wall to the Tiger Mountains in order to finally learn the truth about who he is, and discover the full extent of his destiny. |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The masters of the various clans are usually referred to by their titles—the Leopard Master, the Monkey Master. and so on. One particular aversion is the Crane Master, whose real name is given as Fei Lu. |

High-Pressure Blood: Throwing a stalagmite at an enemy in the Mantis Caves will result in a spurting spray of crimson from them before they die—even if the enemy in question was a statue warrior. |

Reasonable Authority Figure: The Leopard Master, full stop. Considering that T'ai Fu basically trespassed upon his Clan's jungle fortress and battled his way through his guards—potentially by setting a good number of them on fire—he's surprisingly willing to hear T'ai out and teach him the ways of feline martial arts. Provided, of course, that T'ai can defeat his daughter in single combat... |

Tiger Versus Dragon: Literally—the Tiger Clan is stated to have been the only clan that could match the Dragon Clan in terms of power, both in martial arts and spirituality. It's why the Dragon Master sought to wipe them out, and why T'ai Fu is the one with the best chance to defeat him. |

Last of His Kind: T'ai Fu. The rest of the Tiger clan was wiped out by the Dragon Master, out of fear that they would be able to unite the other clans to oppose his reign. According to the manual, the Dragon Master himself also qualifies—the other Dragons wiped themselves out through infighting after their pride and ambition got the best of them. |

Turns Red: Two of the bosses do this: The Rat Pirate Captain periodically goes into a berserker rage, gaining a blood-red Battle Aura. He's completely invincible in this state, forcing T'ai to find an explosive barrel and hurl it at him to bring him back down to normal. The Boar Boss in the Mountain Pass is revived by tribal magic after T'ai kills him the first time. |

Gameplay and Story Integration: If you read the manual, you learn that the Snake Clan hopes to become dragons thanks to the Dragon Master's experiments with magic. The Cobra Captains you face in the final level are the result of said experiments. |

Blow You Away: The Wind Chi scrolls transform T'ai's chi attacks into whirling tornados that can be guided around with the D-Pad. Given the clunky steering mechanic, and the fact that it doesn't do much damage, and you might be better served sticking to T'ai's basic Chi energy. |

Leap of Faith: Sadly, this is one of the things that the game is most known for and contributed to knocking down its review as an otherwise overall good game. Many levels have bottomless pits where you cannot see the ledge on the other side. Missing the hidden ledge will kill T'ai Fu. To make up for this the game creators had a 1-Up appearing just before the jump and each time you died in a fall, you would start over again near the 1-Up, still made the game needlessly frustrating for many. |
