Challenge of the Dragon (Sachen)

This is a beat-em'-up and platformer developed by Joy Van. It was released in the last quarter of 1989 by Sachen.

There's a total of five levels, each divided into four sections. Section one and three feature typical beat-em'-up gameplay. The second section is a platforming part that happens in a different cave for each level with hazards. Numerous pots with items inside are scattered throughout the cave. The last section of each level is a one on one boss fight. Items can be selected when the game is paused. To use them, press and hold the A button. As for attacks, the 1989 version of the game features punching and jumping, separately. The 1990 (international) version adds a flying kick.

NOTE: Challenge of the Dragon / Chinese KungFu (Sachen) is not to be confused with Challenge of the Dragon (Color Dreams).
