It's the year 199X, and nuclear war has devastated New York City leaving its citizens to fight for survival as riots and crime engulf the streets. The city has been overtaken by criminal gangs who terrorize its ruins as they fight for total dominance. Unwilling to endure these conditions any longer, young Billy and Jimmy Lee take it upon themselves to drive the gangs out of their city.
Always look for opportunities to perform Special KO's, especially when you health is full. These knockouts drop valuable food that can be converted into cash which you can then spend at the shop to unlock new characters and items and also purhase tokens.
Make sure you pay attention to the continue options when you start a new game of Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of Dragons. Infinite allows unlimited continues, permadeath mean you only have one life, and continuous requires that you spend five tokens in order to continue with the game. To begin with until you become familiar with the game it is recommended that you select the unlimited continues option.
Prioritize dealing with the minions first during boss fights because battling these underlings gives you the opportunity to perform Special KO's which grant you health-restoring food or extra cash.
After you defeat a boss you will be able to choose an upgrade for both your primary and secondary characters. Keep in mind that if you have no interest in the items on offer you can instead opt for a one-time cash payout to boost your funds.
It is more benefical to go to the Token Shop than squander your hard-earned cash on continues. At the Token Shop you will be able to unlock new characters or items which will help you in combat and make previously challenging areas more manageable.
