Gameplay
Bruce Lee: Enter the Game is a fighting game where in players will get to control Bruce Lee as he performs different objectives which mainly revolve around striking at enemies or ensuring that his master is freed or doesn’t get hurt. Striking at enemies and prioritizing targets is pretty much the focus of the game, and upgrades as well as new items and costumes can help increase your abilities. This lets you handle even tougher opponents with ease. Fights are divided into scenes, and there’s also a survival mode where in you can test your skills against an endless array of enemies.
Currency
Coins and jade are the two currencies within the game. Coins are used for purchasing upgrades, boosts, and items in the shop, while jade is used for the replenishment of lives should you not want to wait. Coins can be won by defeating enemies, with players able to earn more by increasing their coin multipliers. On the other hand, jade can be earned by completing achievements. Coins and jade are also acquired via in-app purchases, which is completely optional.
Lives
Bruce Lee: Enter the Game uses a life system which allows you to play a scene. Playing a scene costs one life, but this will be returned to you if you are able to clear it. Lives regenerate over time, but using jade can be done so that you would not have to wait.
Controls
Controls within the game are simple. Tapping the screen will make Bruce go to that location and would also make him immune to damage. Striking is done by swiping at the screen, with the direction of the swipe affecting which of the enemies’ body part Bruce will attack. Holding the screen before releasing it when swiping will create special attacks which deal more damage as well as pierce through the defenses of other types of enemies.
At two level areas, swiping down will make Bruce drop to the lower levels, while swiping up will make Bruce jump. Players can also choose to attack while jumping via swipes. Another advanced move is counterattacking, which can be done by following the direction being displayed on top of the enemy’s heads. Counterattacking deals greater damage as well as increases the chance of stuns.
Enemies
Different types of enemies will appear, and each of them behaves differently. Knowing how to attack them more effectively will be the key to victory, and players can prioritize on as to whom they would like to attack to make defending against multiple enemies easier. There are also boss characters that will be much harder to beat, so players must be sure to formulate a strategy on their attack as well as to know when to retreat and regroup.
Fury
By making combos, players can get to fill up the Fury meter. Once the meter has been filled, players can activate it which would cause Bruce to deal increased damage for a limited period of time. Fury can be improved by upgrading Bruce’s stats or by equipping certain items. Take note, however, that combos will reset and Fury meters will be more difficult to fill up as enemies hit your character.
Multipliers
By striking at enemies simultaneously, players can also fill up a separate meter. This is the coin multiplier, and completely filling it will cause an increase in the number of coins that you will get from defeating enemies. The more combos you make, the higher your multiplier will go, and the faster the rate by which you will be able to earn enough cash for those all important upgrades
Upgrades
Players can upgrade Bruce’s stats in a variety of ways, making him more formidable in battle. By spending coins, players can improve Bruce’s vitality, power, and Fury. They can also purchase items in the shop such as weapons and costumes which would also increase your abilities for as long as they are equipped. Items will become unlocked in the shop as players progress through the scenes within the game.
Boosts
Boosts are special items that players can purchase before playing a scene. Boosts provide players with additional benefits such as giving Bruce increased power of Fury for the duration of the scene. Players can bring up to three boosts at a time, but only one slot is available initially. Using boosts will require players to spend coins, and this is an optional albeit a very useful way to get though tougher rounds if you do not have many for more permanent upgrades just yet.
Scenes
The game is divided into different episodes which are then divided into scenes. Different scenes will require different objectives, and players can earn up to three stars depending on how fast they are able to finish the required task. There’s also a fourth star that can be earned by completing special requirements. Stars are important as this is used for unlocking certain scenes. For regular scenes, however, simply completing the previous scene will unlock the next one. Also, players can repeated previously completed scenes in order to grind for cash as well as to collect any stars that they may not have earned.
There’s also an Endurance Mode that will be unlocked later on. This mode is a special mode where in Bruce can try to last for as long as he can as he survives against an endless number of opponents.
Achievements
Achievements are special tasks that players can complete. These tasks vary, and the rewards that come with them come in the form of jade. Not only is this the best and fee way to earn to earn premium currency, but this also proves your ultimate mastery of the game. Thus, make it a point to check up on and try to complete any of the achievements that you can.
