Phantom Fighter NES is an action game developed by Marionette and SRS and published by FCI in North America in April 1990. You play a kung-fu master who fights kyonshi, or Chinese vampires, across eight towns. This listing is the loose cartridge only, with no box or manual.
The game was released in Japan as Reigen Doushi, and the Japanese version is based on the 1985 film Mr. Vampire. FCI brought it to North America in April 1990 under the name Phantom Fighter. The game was developed by Marionette and SRS.
Each of the eight towns is overrun with kyonshi and has its own boss. After clearing all eight, you face an evil witch in the final fight. Infinite continues are available, which helps you reach the end.
The game has a few odd details. Its inventory screen lists every item in the game, not only the items you are carrying. There is also a hidden character, a baby kyonshi, that makes the game much harder.
Phantom Fighter mixes kung-fu fighting with vampire horror. If you know the film Mr. Vampire, the Phantom Fighter NES cartridge is the North American version of the game based on it. With infinite continues, it suits players who want to see the whole game.

Classic 8-bit gaming fun. A goofy, straight forward, like side scroll straight forward, game.

I really wanted to like this game..
This game had so much potential but was ruined with its ridiculous repetitiveness. You go into a house fight a phantom or several then possibly get a reward. Then go into the next house and do the same. Every town is the same. The very first room is repeated over and over. Other things that annoyed me was using items like the sword. I get a few hits with it and it breaks. I got to town 5 or 6 and had to quit.
