In 1930s, Hong Kong, struggling former World War I fighter pilot Jake "Lucky" Masters is recruited by rich businessman E.A. Lomax for a dangerous mission. Lomax's daughter Kate has been kidnapped by ruthless warlord Li Deng and imprisoned in Deng's Chengdu fortress.

After sneaking into Deng's fortress, Lucky and Chi snatch Kate and escape. Unfortunately, Kate is bitten by a snake during the rescue and the only medicine that can save her is in Kathmandu in Nepal. After further adventures in Istanbul, the trio makes its way to Paris. The game featured three different endings, with the player's actions determining which one would be depicted. The game was developed on the proprietary Dynamix Game Development System that was first used in Rise of the Dragon.

Because of tight production budgets, Dynamix had to recruit the cast of actors from the company's own employees and even their families.
