Gang Wars is a Beat 'em up developed by Alpha Denshi and published by SNK in 1989 for Arcades.
Story
Two martial artists and friends, Mike and Jackie, must traverse New York to save their friend Cynthia, who was kidnapped by a local mobster named Jaguar.
There are two endings. If Mike and Jackie defeat Jaguar, Cynthia thanks the two for saving the city. But if they let Jaguar get away on his helicopter, he will vow to return and hunt down the two martial artists.
Gameplay
Gang wars is a typical beat 'em up, with a gameplay similar to SNK's earlier P.O.W: Prisoners of War. You have buttons for punching, kicking and jumping, and the use of different attacks by doing combinations with them. Players are also able to pick up various weapons strewn across the stages, including both blunt weapons as well as firearms with limited ammo.
