Jackie Chan Adventures: Legend of the Dark Hand is a single player beat-'em-up developed by Torus Games for the Game Boy Advance (GBA), based on the Jackie Chan Adventures animated TV series. The game was published by Activision and released in November 2001 in North America and Europe.
The game is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up. In each level, Jackie must defeat a horde of minions before facing off against a level boss. Depending on the level, these minions may be the goons of Enforcers like Hak Foo and Ratso, and/or the Shadowkhan (four tribes appear in the game, each with their own abilities and weapons).
Except in the Section 13 Training Area, scrolls appear right before each boss fight. Each one grants Jackie a new attack (i.e. new punch and kick combos), which he can use immediately afterwards.
