to you think all beat-'em-ups are nothing more
than gratuitous blood and gore? Do bloodied
torsos make your stomach churn? Fear not
because Gametek have an alternative you
could even ainvite the Vicar laround to play. Called Brutal
Paws of Rini, it's still a beat-'em-up, but with a difference.
Forget ferocious characters that would rip your
head off as soon as they look as you, and clean up the
entrails and the headless corpses - there is a new fighting
game taking to the ring. Already available on the
consoles, Brutal Paws of Fury is almost ready to hit the
Amiga and could well steel the hearts of many.
The premise behind it is a little unusual: It's a 'cartoon'
martial arts game and certainly promises to be
original. There are lots of cute creatures all aiming to
beat each other up (in the nicest possible way, of
course!) to decide who is worthy of wearing the Belt of
Heaven - an award which brings great honour.
This contest is judged by the Dali Llama, who every
four years goes on a quest to find the world's greatest
warriors. The fighters are all invited to his peaceful
island to compete against each other and are judged
not only on their martial arts skills but also how much of
the 'warrior spirit' they possess. The winner can then
claim the coveted Belt of Heaven. Now I say cartoon
