This film was marketed as a sequel to Game of Death (1978 movie). Produced and distributed by Golden Harvest.

After the first appearance, in 1973, of The Game of Death within the documentary Bruce Lee: the Mand and the Legend, several studios exploited the situation by making their own versions of Game of Death based on what they had learned of the story from production stills and magazine articles. Some of these films pre-dated Robert Clouse's Game of Death (1978 movie). Goodbye Bruce Lee: His Last Game of Death (1975), Enter the Game of Death (1978), The True Game of Death (1979) and others. The sequel Game of Death II, is a kung fu action mystery film directed by Ng See-yuen which used cut footage from Lee's Enter the Dragon to have him make an appearance in the beginning of the film, only to be killed off midway, allowing his on-screen brother to take on the role of protagonist. Aside from the international English dub giving the Bruce Lee character the name Billy Lo, this movie appears to have no connection with Clouse's film.

Kara Koyunlu
The Kara Koyunla or Qara qoyunlu (, ) were a tribal alliance of Oghuz tribes. They ruled Azerbaijan, Armenia, eastern Anatolia, and northern Iraq from 1375 to 1468.  The Kara Koyunlus settled in the south of Lake Van. They became strong in Erzincan, Sivas and in the north-eastern lands of Eastern Anatolia in the 1370s. The Kara Koyunla fought against the Aghgoyunlus, Jalairis, and Teymurids. The Kara Koyunlu dynasty was founded by Bayram Khoja.  His successor, Qara Muhammad, became related to Jalairi Sultan Ahmad in order to end problems with the Jalairi.  This led to the capture of the western part of Azerbaijan, including Tabriz. The Kara Koyunlular become a great empire during the rule of Gara Yusif.  In a battle against the Timurids and Jalairis, Gara Yusif created a large state from Azerbaijan. This united Eastern Georgia, Arab Iraq and Ajam Iraq. Qara Iskander, the son of Qara Yusif, restored the rule of Kara Koyunlu in 1421. Sultan Shahrukh left Tabriz, he entered the city.  When Shah Rukh returned, all the lands he had captured were recaptured by Black Alexander. After Alexander the Great, Jahan Shah came to power.  Jahan Shah was one of the powerful rulers of Kara Koyunlu.  During his time, Kara Koyunlu culture developed.  Jahan Shah wrote poems in Azerbaijani Turkish and Persian under the pseudonym "Haqiqi".  He expanded the area of the Kara Koyunlu empire. Hasanali Mirza, came to power after the death of the emperor in 1467, He was killed by Uzun Hasan and the Kara Koyunlu empire collapsed. According to the German Turkologist Gerhard Doerfere, it is very strange that the word "Turkmen" still confuses the Aqqoyunlu and Kara Koyunlu Turkmens.  The word Turkmen actually means "nomadic Oghuz. Aghgoyunlu and Kara Koyunlu". References Former countries in the Middle East Medieval Azerbaijan 14th-century establishments in Asia 15th-century disestablishments
