Gameplay
Dangerous Streets offers two-player battles, single matches against the computer, and a tournament mode. The eight characters can be controlled with either a joystick or a keyboard and have the ability to punch or kick in the range of weak, medium, and strong. The characters in their portraits below the playfield will appear more injured as they take more damage in game.
Sgiosa Capeli, a musically tasteless DJ at one of the roughest night spots in Italy who also appears to be a master of Shotokan karate.
Reception
The game was derided by critics. Stuart Campbell of Amiga Power gave it a rating of 3%, describing it as the worst game for the CD32 and one of the worst games ever. Amiga CD32 gamer gave the game a score of 2 out of 10, remarking that the "animation reveals the artist's complete lack of understanding human physiology and is painful to watch. There's also far too few frames of animation, movement is too fast and control is lousy. Whoever put this in the CD32 pack has a complete contempt for gamers, or is in the paid employ of Sega."
Among non-English reviewers, the French magazine Joystick unusually gave the game a more positive rating of 65%. The German magazine Amiga Joker gave the game a score of 20%, giving mixed reception to its graphics and sound but deriding its gameplay.
