Street Smart

Street Smart is a 1989 beat ‘em up game produced by SNK.

The aim of the game is simple: get money, girls and glory by brawling on the streets. And not only that, you’ll be doing it in the once-in-a-lifetime “Champion Tag Match in USA”.

What separates this beat ‘em up from other games of its kind that spring to mind is that it’s not just about fighting off swathes of opponents. This is a one-to-one brawl on the “battle-field”, hemmed in on all sides.

Give this game a shot if you’re a fan of retro games. You can find it amongst the SNK 40th Anniversary Collection which features other legendary SNK games.

Are you up to the challenge? It might be more complicated than you’re used to… you’ve been warned.
