The game uses side-scrolling stages with platforming, combat, and occasional climbing or wall-jump sections. The player moves through city streets, interiors, and elevated routes while defeating waves of enemies and stage bosses. Combat centers on switching between melee strikes and ranged attacks, with jumping used both for offense and for navigating gaps, ledges, and vertical terrain. Progress is linear, with each stage ending in a boss encounter.
China Gate is a 1988 arcade action platformer set in 1930s Shanghai. Players control a wandering martial artist who fights criminal syndicates across dangerous streets and rooftops. Its standout features are wall-jumping movement and a dual-weapon setup that blends close-range martial arts with projectile attacks, giving the game a fast, demanding arcade rhythm and a strong period atmosphere.

Learn wall-jump timing early, since many routes and escapes depend on it. Use ranged attacks to interrupt enemies before they crowd you, then finish with melee when they are vulnerable. Against bosses, stay patient, watch attack patterns, and avoid committing to long strings when there is no opening.
