This uncompromising action title is a masterclass in martial arts choreography, focusing entirely on the discipline and lethality of Pak Mei Kung Fu. You play as a young student on a lifelong quest for revenge against the five assassins who murdered your family. The game is famous for its unique aging mechanic: every time you fall in battle, you are resurrected by a magical talisman, but at the cost of years of your life. While you become more powerful and deal more damage as you age, your maximum health decreases, meaning you must master the combat system before your time literally runs out.
