The debut adventure of Alex Kidd sees him traveling through Miracle World as he punches everything in sight and plays rock-paper-scissors with people with hands for heads.
Developer Message#
In the Japanese version, when the ending message appears on the screen, press 1(×14) on controller 2, then press 1 or 2 on controller 1.
The message translates to:
We dedicate this story to Kouichi and Emi. May children yet to be born be strong, and have love and bravery, like Alex.
And we, together with Alex, hope that all who love Alex may be forever happy.

Revisional Differences#
Starting in 1990, some Master Systems featured a built-in version of this game with a few changes.
- The original version used Button 1 to jump and Button 2 to punch. These were switched for the built-in version, resulting in a more conventional layout.
