Story:Black Tiger, known in Japan as Black Dragon, is a 1987 action game released for the arcades by Capcom. A barbarian hero jumps and fights his way through a variety of colourful, enemy-packed levels. The sprawling, eight-way scrolling, two-dimensional levels are packed with hidden bonuses to encourage and reward exploration. Though a percentage of these bonuses consist of dubious and often self-evident "advice", most come in the form of "Zenny coins", currency that allows the player to buy such items as an upgrade to their weapons and armour, keys for treasure chests, and anti-poisoning potions. Special items that reveal coins, upgraded armour, full vitality, extra lives, extra time, or simply bonus points may be found by attacking certain walls. The player's vitality bar will also increase up to three times as a reward for reaching score benchmarks.Show more

The very first game i´ve played on arcade. We finished the game in 2 hours more or less and and always competing to see who scored more points at the time. 1990
With this game, I started playing video games at the age of 6. I liked this Capcom classic so much that I finished it with a single credit at that age, and to this day, I finish it with a single credit. I am now 45 years old, and it is not available on any platform; I can only play it emulated. I would love for it to be brought to your platform; it is an excellent game and very difficult to complete with a single credit. I hope you can bring it here to GOG; I would buy it without a doubt. Thank you.
