An extremely faithful reproduction of the original (Apple II version) complete with monochrome monitor options and simulated disk loading sound effects.
Dedicated buttons for all the attacks (high, mid, and low punches and kicks) make it easier to string together combos in rapid succession (quite a departure from wrestling with a single button joystick 30 years ago) which in turn makes the game itself a bit less challenging for experienced karatekas.
iPad/iPhone compatibility and a 99 cent price point make this one trip down memory lane worth taking!
