Body Blows

The game follows the formula of the Street Fighter series. The player competes against each opponent in best-of-three matches. Each fighter has their own set of standard attack moves and special moves. Due to most Amiga joysticks of the time having one single fire button, the controls for special moves are largely simplified: one special move per character is performed by keeping the fire button pressed while holding still, while others are performed by moving in one of the eight directions and pressing the fire button.

There are no combos or throws. Unlike Street Fighter and other similar games such as Mortal Kombat, blocking is performed by holding the fire button while moving away from the opponent.

In the United Kingdom, it was the top-selling Amiga game in March 1993.
