Description

"Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu" is a platform video game that was developed by Joy Van and published by Color Dreams for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1989. The game is set in a mystical rendition of ancient China and follows the adventures of Master Chu, a Taoist monk, who must defend his temple from an onslaught of ghosts and demons. Alongside Master Chu is his ally, the unpredictable Drunkard Hu, who provides comedic relief and assists in the battle against the supernatural foes. The gameplay is characterized by typical platforming elements combined with the unique twist of using magical spells to defeat enemies and overcome obstacles.

The game is notable for being one of the titles released by Color Dreams, a company known for producing unlicensed games for the NES. This means that "Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu" was not officially endorsed by Nintendo and bypassed the company's strict licensing and quality control standards. As a result, it has a certain cult following among classic game collectors and enthusiasts who have an interest in the niche market of unlicensed NES games. The game itself challenges players with its varied levels and the strategic use of spells, requiring both platforming skills and tactical planning to progress through the mystical and perilous world that Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu must navigate.
