🐯 Water Margin: Tiger Slayer
Pixel action RPG — the whole outlaw saga, fifteen chapters to the great muster.
How to Play Water Margin: Tiger Slayer
- Move with the arrow keys / WASD, or the on-screen D-pad on mobile.
- Press Space (A) to strike and Shift (B) for your hero's special: Lu Zhishen's ground slam, Lin Chong's spear sweep or Wu Song's flurry.
- Press Tab (or tap a portrait) to switch heroes once they've joined the band — some chapters also add guest heroes like Shi Jin or the archer Hua Rong.
- Live the novel's full arc across fifteen chapters: from Gao Qiu's rise and the fists of Lu Zhishen, through Lin Chong's snowstorm, Wu Song's tiger and bloody vengeance, the Birthday Convoy heist, the rescue at Jiangzhou and the great battles of Zhu Family Manor, the chained cavalry, Daming and Zengtou — all the way to the muster of the 108 heroes.
- Progress autosaves after each chapter; continue any time from the chapter select.
Tips & Strategy
- The tiger always pauses for a breath after its pounce — that's the only safe moment to attack.
- Spear soldiers outrange fists; circle behind them, or switch to Lin Chong and outrange them right back.
- Hearts dropped by enemies fade after a few seconds — grab them before they blink out.

Swap the active hero instantly with Tab or by tapping a portrait; each keeps his own hearts and fighting style.
