All Star Karate
About the Game
All Star Karate consists of three game modes through which players get to experience the life of a karate trainee on the path to becoming a black belt. Story Mode is the main focus of the single player experience, in which players follow a storyline in which they learn from (and about!) their aged Sensei.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Reaching goals in Story Mode also unlocks the trials in Challenge Mode and the Kata Editor, from which players can exercise their creativity and practice their moves. The all-encompassing theme is the use of different Wii Remote gestures that correspond to a variety of karate moves. In particular, 17 characters can be unlocked and pitted against each other in 2-player sparring games. • Kata Routine: Follow the icons that appear on-screen to perform a sequence of elegant karate moves. Kata Routines may be long, exhibition performances or sequences to teach combo moves via muscle-memory for use during sparring bouts.
