Double Dragon was created by Japanese company Technōs Japan Corp. It was originally developed as an arcade game in 1987 before being adapted for various platforms, the first of which was Nintendo.
It is a beat 'em up game where you assume the role of brothers Billy and Jimmy Lee, who must rescue the kidnapped girl, Marian, from the street gang known as the Black Warriors.
The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic urban environment, where you take on hordes of enemies using punches, kicks and special attacks.
You can also pick up improvised weapons, such as sticks or knives, to aid you in your rescue mission.
A standout feature of Double Dragon is the ability to play in co-op mode, allowing two players to team up and fight enemies together.
As you progress through the levels, you'll face challenging bosses and unlock new moves and abilities.
Double Dragon became an instant hit and left a lasting mark on the video game industry.
It spawned numerous sequels and spin-offs on different platforms over the years.
It was ported to Sega Master System, Atari 2600, Game Boy, Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo, PlayStation and Xbox, among others.
