'Karateka' (ALL) - New Screens

by Rainier on Oct. 3, 2012 @ 8:53 a.m. PDT

Karateka is a rhythm-fighting game where players assume the role of three Japanese warriors attempting to rescue a kidnapped princess from an evil warlord.

Players engage in frenetic one-on-one battles with various enemies, using timed martial arts moves (i.e., punch/kick combos) to stun opponents and drain their health meters.

Matches are highlighted by battle cries, colorful light flashes, and slow-motion effects; when players’ character is knocked out, a brief cutscene depicts him falling down the side of a mountain.
