SeekerFist of the North Star: Lost Paradise
Essentially, the series is A Big Deal, but despite its gaming friendly scenario – a post-apocalyptic future where mutants, bandits, and marauders terrorise survivors, and where wanderer Kenshiro employs a deadly martial art known as ‘Hokuto Shinken’ to protect the weak – and multiple attempts over the past three decades, it’s never really translated into a great game.
