Mortal Kombat (Sega)

What Is Mortal Kombat?

Mortal Kombat is a legendary fighting game first unleashed onto the world in 1992 by the Midway Games. It was the very first of the franchise and became a landmark in the cultural mainstream for its melodramatic fight sequences, characters, and pioneering violence. The game was released on every major home console of the time under the distribution of Acclaim Entertainment. Set on Shang Tsung's mysterious island in the Earthrealm, the story is about a great tournament wherein the future status of the realm is at stake. If his strong lieutenant Goro wins ten consecutive tournaments, then Shao Kahn, the Emperor of Outworld, will take over Earthrealm. Some warriors must step in to save the day, and what a grooving and exhilarating ride it is.

How to Play

Pick your fighter from a wide roster, where selections have detailed movesets and fighting styles. The objectives are straightforward: take away the health bar of your opponent before time runs out. Matches are made in a two-out-of-three-rounds format, and you can fight against the computer or a friend. In the meantime, if a second player shows up during your one-player game, they will get the option to challenge you. Then, whoever wins will choose to finish the game or start a new one. Time for some hideous Fatal Moves! Hare your character's special attacks, and run away with glory.

Tips & Tricks

• Learn Your Characters: Know about the character you have selected, his strengths, and weaknesses. Some would be better in close quarters, while some excel in ranged fights.
• Get to Know the Moves: Learn combos and special moves so your opponent will never see them coming.
• Use the Surroundings: Some stages have interaction with the surrounding environment that could benefit you.
• Maintain Your Stamina: Simply put, don't spam special moves because they will suck up your stamina in no time!
• Read Your Opponent: Try to anticipate an opponent's moves and counter them to the best of yourself.
