About this game

Black Tiger is an action-focused arcade adventure in which a barbarian must defeat three dragons that have plunged the kingdom into darkness. Progress through several areas, battling monsters and overcoming hazards along the way.

Rescue old men to receive useful rewards such as extra time, increased vitality, and coins. Some also sell equipment and supplies, including armor upgrades, weapons, treasure-chest keys, and anti-poisoning potions. Coins can be collected from defeated monsters or by breaking pots.
