Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance on the Game Boy Advance adapts the console game of the same name to the portable platform, presenting a subset of characters, arenas and modes, with simplified controls and graphics in line with the handheld's capabilities. The game includes 12 characters (down from 23 in the console version) and 13 arenas (down from 17).
Gameplay is focused on one-on-one fighting, with an emphasis on strategic button mashing and combos. The controls are simplified compared to the console version, featuring only two attack buttons: one for kicks and one for punches. The right shoulder button blocks, while the left shoulder button switches between two different fighting styles for each character, each with its unique moves and combos.
The game also features a variety of modes, including Arcade, Survival, and Link Mode, which allows players to fight against other characters via link cable. Additionally, the classic mini-games Test Your Might and Test Your Sight are included, as well as special weapon moves for most characters.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
In this fighting game sequel, Earth's heroes must defend their realm against the "Deadly Alliance," a coalition of sorcerers Shang Tsung and Quan Chi who seek to resurrect the Dragon King's army. Players assume the role of these champions as they travel to Outworld to engage in Mortal Kombat and thwart the villains' apocalyptic plans.
Story
The Deadly Alliance
With the aid of the thunder god known as Raiden, Earth's mightiest heroes have repelled all invasions from other-worldly forces through a tournament known as Mortal Kombat.
Although there has been relative peace for many years, a new threat to Earthrealm has emerged. This time, the threat of evil has two faces.
The Threat
In an attempt to seize control of the realms, the sorcerers Shang Tsung and Quan Chi have joined forces. They are preparing to revive the lost army of the mythological Dragon King.
Should they succeed, they will be unstoppable.
The Mission
Once again, Earth's heroes must venture to Outworld and kombat the forces of evil. They must act now to stop this Deadly Alliance.
How to Play
Getting Started
Please follow the instructions below before attempting to play this game. Make sure the POWER switch is in the OFF position. Insert the Nintendo GAME BOY® ADVANCE Game Pak into the slot on the back of the Game Boy Advance, label facing AWAY from play side. Slide the POWER switch to the ON position to turn ON the power. Follow gameplay instructions throughout this manual.
Linking Up
Up to two Game Boy® Advance systems can be linked using the Game Boy® Advance Game Link® Cable. If necessary, review your Game Boy® Advance Game Link® Cable instruction manual for set-up information. Once connected, two players will have access at the Fighter Selection Screen.
NOTE: Both players must have a Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance Game Pak to play in Link Mode.
Game play options like the ROUND TIME and the ROUNDS TO WIN are taken from Player 1's Game Boy Advance settings. If either player has unlocked hidden characters or alternate palettes, they may be used in a link mode match. You'll select a fighter just as you do in Arcade Mode.
Betting in Link Mode
If both linked players have a profile loaded, a betting screen will appear after both players have selected their fighters. Both players can raise or lower the bet by pressing the CONTROL PAD UP or DOWN. To lock the bet, both players must press the A Button, and the match will begin.
If a player presses the B Button, the bet will be unlocked, and both players will be able to adjust the bet again. The maximum bet is equal to the lower of the two players' Koins. No player may bet more than 50,000 koin. If one or both of the players has zero Koins, you will be unable to bet.
The winner of the match will receive the amount bet, and the loser of the match will lose that amount. If the match is interrupted or quit, the bet will be nullified, and neither player will win or lose koins.
REMEMBER: The Betting option will not be displayed unless both players have player profiles loaded.
The Krypt
The Krypt is an enormous room filled with many coffins. Using the coins you've earned, you can "purchase" coffins to open and reveal the hidden content. Sometimes you'll discover big items like new characters or backgrounds to fight in, and other times you'll find something small.
You can only win and spend coins if you have a profile loaded. Win Coins by playing Arcade Mode, Survival Mode, Mini Games (Test Your Might or Test Your Sight) or by betting in Link Mode. The higher the difficulty level, the more coins you'll win. In Arcade Mode and Survival Mode, you can get bonus coins for performing Flawless Victories.
There are a few coffins in the Krypt that display "???" instead of a price. These items cannot be purchased with Coins and must be unlocked another way! You can view all of the secrets you've unlocked with any profile by going to the Load Profile screen.
If a Special Mode is unlocked, go to the Advanced Options screen and highlight the now-available "Select Mode" option. Press the A BUTTON or press the CONTROL PAD LEFT or RIGHT to select the mode (or turn special modes off).
