Description
From PRINCE OF PERSIA creator Jordan Mechner, the original side-scrolling
karate classic comes to Steam with art by Jeff Matsuda (The Batman) and
music by Grammy-winning composer Christopher Tin (CIVILIZATION IV).
Whether you are a nostalgic Karateka fan or new to the game, Karateka
will charm you with its classic love story set in feudal Japan. Fight to
save the lovely Mariko from the evil warlord Akuma and reunite her with
her True Love!
Features
Rhythm-based combat mechanic. Easy to grasp yet challenging to master,
the cinematic gameplay seamlessly blends a series of escalating karate
battles with a simple human story.
Three playable characters. Three endings. Three suitors vie for Mariko’s
love: A fearsome Brute, a noble Monk, and her brave True Love.
Highly replayable. Innovative ôthree suitorsö system offers a compact
single-playthrough experience, yet challenges advanced players to unlock
more difficult achievements and endings as their skill improves.
Unique real-time score by Christopher Tin tells the story through the
music. Authentic Japanese instruments and themes let you “hear” the
onscreen action in real time.
