Black Tiger
Black Tiger is a scrolling platform shoot-em-up set in a fantasy world and is the spiritual successor to the Capcom classic, "Ghosts 'n' Goblins".
The player takes on the role of a barbarian hero who must jump and fight his way through a variety of colourful, enemy-packed levels, collecting treasure and weapon power-ups and rescuing the trapped 'wise old men' that litter the levels.
Rescuing the wise men sees the player awarded 'Zeny coins'; these are the game's currency and allow the player to buy such items as weapon and armour upgrades, keys for treasure chests, anti-poisoning potions and health potions from the shops that appear on each level. Occasionally, a rescued wise man will also offer to sell the player weapon and armour power-ups.
The barbarian hero is armed with a spiked mace on the end of a long chain, as well as unlimited throwing daggers. Both these and the armour worn by the barbarian (which offers limited protection from enemy attacks) can be upgraded by finding or buying the relevant power-ups.
The sprawling, eight-way scrolling levels are packed with hidden bonuses to encourage and reward exploration. These bonuses are in the form of weapon and armour power-ups, as well as valuable treasure items. Many levels also include a hidden dungeon and each dungeon is filled with both bonus items and trapped wise men.
Special items that reveal coins, upgraded armour, or simply bonus points can be found by attacking certain walls.

Tips on Black Tiger
* Bosses strategy :
STONE BLOCK - Vitality : 2 or 4. After completion of Round 1, you will see two blocks stacked up. After the completion of Round 2, you will see four blocks stacked up.
1) The blocks will attack in a staggered formation. In a sense, it will look like they are walking toward your character.
2) When they are in the air, they will attempt to land on your character. It's best to either move back or jump forward. Don't let yourself get caught in the corner.
3) As you hit them, cracks will appear in them. This means that your hits are connecting. Again, don't stay in one place too long or they will jump onto your character.
4) Use the same type of tactics for both the two and four block bosses. Just move under them when they jump and take shots when you can. This will be especially important on the four block round.
5) Just keep moving around and hitting them and you shouldn't have any problems of turning these blocks back to dust.
DRAGONS (ALL COLORS) - Vitality : 3, 6, or 8. You get the Blue Dragon on Round 3, Red Dragon on Round 6, and the Black Dragon on Round 8.
1) These are by far the roughest bosses you will have to deal with. They fly and breathe fire which makes maneuvering a bit tricky. In addition, you must hit them in the top part of their body.
2) When the battle sets up, the dragon will be on the right side of the screen, wings folded up. When you approach, the dragon will take off and fly up and to the left. If you can, jump and shoot at the moment of takeoff to get in a hit.
3) The dragon will flash when you successfully connect a shot. The number of hits to make the vitality meter go down will depend on the weapon you have.
4) When the dragon flies toward your character, it will use its breath weapon to torch the floor in front of it. Jump to the opposite side the dragon is flying toward.
5) You can't hit the dragon high in the air. The dragon will come back down and go under your character. This is a great time to get in as many shots as possible. Again, watch out for the breath weapon.
6) If you get too close, the dragon will claw and bite at your character. Again, keep your distance since this would be suicide going toe-to-toe with the dragon.
7) Continue to move/jump around the room and you will eventually send the dragon back to where it belongs.
DEMOM WARRIOR (ALL COLORS) - Vitality : 5 or 6. You get the Blue Demon Warrior on Round 5 and the Red one on Round 7.
1) When you approach the Demon Warrior, it will unfurl its wings and display two nasty looking swords in each hand. In addition, the Demon Warrior has limited flight/jump capabilities.
2) Since the Demon Warrior stays on the ground, you can jump and attack as long as you keep your distance. The Demon Warrior has two major attacks :
a) It will hit its swords onto the ground creating a wave of fire or ice which can knock some chunks out of your armor.
b) It will jump close to your character and use its swords to deadly effect.
3) For both of these attacks, you can leap higher then the Demon Warrior so when it gets too close, jump over it and attack from the other direction. Also, use the raised platforms to further home your attacks in.
4) Continue to jump back and forth. Watch out for residual fire or ice before you jump to a spot. When all is clear, go to it to pound on the Demon Warrior some more.
5) Keep up this pattern to send him packing.
DEVIL - Vitality : 3. You only encounter this boss on Round 4.
1) This little flying menace packs a major wallop. Its main attack is flight and throwing purple fire at your character.
2) You will either need a weapon that can shoot in the air or find platforms/ledges to stand on to fire on this boss since it rarely comes down to ground level.
3) Use the jump button liberally on this round. You will not only need to jump out of the way of the flames the devil throws, but you will also need to keep sharp for any attacks you can get in.
4) The Devil tends to swoop in and make an attack before you can react and counterattack.
5) This boss will require patience and a lot of maneuvering room so you don't get yourself cornered. Fortunately, it doesn't take that many hits (even with a weak weapon) to bring this boss down.

2) Go shopping on your left then head right. You will be jumping to several platforms across big pits with spikes. When you get all the way to the right, climb the column. SECRET : Break wall for Weapon +1.
3) Head left on the next platform. Go shopping with the first sage and get a minute from the second sage along the path. Follow the path around to the end.
4) Go up the column and shoot the wall on your left. SECRET : Break wall for Armor +1.
5) Go up and onto the next platform on the right. The first sage will destroy all the enemies on screen while the second sage has a shop. After this, continue to follow the path around.
6) At the end, go to the next platform on the left. Follow the columns to the end then climb up.
7) At the top, head to the right on the next platform. Go to the sage for your shopping needs.
8) Jump onto the next higher platform to your right and follow it to the end. You will notice a big gap. A regular jump won't clear the gap. What you have to do is push the joystick right, diagonal up while pressing the jump button to clear this gap and get onto the next higher platform.
9) Jump the gap and you will have a close encounter with the seventh boss.
ROUND 8 :
1) As always, go to the shop on your left if you need to. Then head to the right. As you climb the column, shoot right. SECRET : Break wall for Weapon +1 and Armor +4.
2) Go straight up and go to the platform on your left. SECRET : Break wall for Weapon +1.
3) Head down and go left along the columns.
4) Go up the column to the next level and go left. The sage will give you a minute.
5) Go up all the way to the top, then head right. You will encounter a sage, with a shop, before the eighth boss battle.

Bugs:
- Test mode doesn't work. Yonah (ID 04067)
WIP:
- 0.141u3: Team Japump changed description of clone 'Black Dragon' to 'Black Dragon (Japan)'. Fixed rom names.
- 0.141u2: David Raingeard added clone Black Tiger (older).
- 0.131u1: Dr. Decapitator, Guru and Angelo Salese added proper MCU dump for Black Tiger. Renamed (bktigrb1) to (blktigerb1), (bktigrb2) to (blktigerb2) and (blkdrgnb) to (blkdrgonb). Added I8751 (6MHz) CPU3 and 4k MCU rom.
- 6th May 2009: Guru - Chip 8751 found on Black Tiger has just been decapped and dumped.
- 13th January 2009: Guru - Black Tiger arrived yesterday, thanks to Smitdogg. Seems nobody except me noticed MAME is missing the 8751 MCU!
- 0.128u5: MAMEitalia added clone Black Tiger (bootleg set 2). Changed description of clone '(bootleg)' to 'Black Tiger (bootleg set 1)'. Renamed (bktigerb) to (bktigrb1).
- 21st October 2008: NibblerWorldChampion dumped Black Tiger (bootleg set 2).
- 0.125u1: Corrado Tomaselli changed Black Tiger main Z80 clock to 6MHz and sound Z80 clock to 3.579545MHz as verified on PCB.
- 0.122u7: Black Tiger update [Couriersud]: Combines memory maps. Input ports were tagged. All reads use input port tags. Added DIP locations from Romstar manual. Couriersud fixed also game can't receive coins during play, only in continue screen.
- 0.122u5: Roberto Zandona fixed tile priority table in Black Tiger.
- 8th July 2007: Mr. Do - Kiltron converted/cleaned the Black Tiger bezel, thanks to BYOAC/CAG artwork.
- 0.104u3: Adam Bousley added save states support to Black Tiger.
- 0.79: Chaneman fixed rom filenames in Black Tiger and clones.
- 27th December 2003: Stefan Jokisch added the fixed Black Dragon (bootleg) ROMs to the Black Tiger driver.
- 0.37b7: Nicola Salmoria fixed sprite/tile priority in Black Tiger.
- 0.36b9: Changed clock speed of the 2x YM2203 to 3579545 Hz.
- 0.35b1: Nicola Salmoria added clone Black Dragon (bootleg). Added missing proms ($0, 100, 200, 300 - function unknown).
- 0.34b5: Marco Cassili added clone Black Tiger (bootleg).
- 6th September 1998: Malcor dumped Black Dragon (bootleg).
- 0.33b4: Nicola Salmoria fixed high score saving in Black Tiger. Dynamic palette support for games with >256 colors, not complete yet but good for many cases. Drivers who want to use it must first of all set up like the static palette ones (put the real number of colors in MachineDriver-> total_colors, etc.), and call palette_recalc() in vh_screenrefresh() before drawing anything. A color usage table must be passed to palette_recalc() so that the function knows which colors are needed. Drivers which use the new system, and therefore no longer run in 16-bit video modes: Black Tiger, City Connection, Gun Dealer and Ninja Gai Den [Nicola Salmoria].
- 0.31: Aaron Giles added 16 bit color support for games which need it (e.g. Rastan, Gauntlet, Black Tiger, and many others).
- 0.30: Mirko Buffoni added Black Dragon (Japan). Michael Appolo fixed character colors in Black Tiger. Juan Carlos Lorente added high score saving to Black Tiger.
- 0.29: Paul Leaman added Black Tiger (Capcom 1987). Thanks to Ishmair for providing information about the screen layout on level 3. Known issues: Colors are pretty close, but the color space is downgraded from 4x4x4 to 3x3x2.
- 15th March 1997: Dumped Black Tiger.
