THIS FILE IS WRITTEN IN ORDER TO TEACH YOU HOW TO WIN THE GAME
|
|||
|
|
"KARATEKA," BY BR0DERBUND.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
UNLIKE AN ADVENTURE WALK THROUGH, YOU STILL HAVE TO LEARN THE MOVES. I
|
|||
|
|
WILL EXPLAIN WHAT TO DO TO WIN THE GAME, AFTER THAT, IT IS UP TO YOU.
|
|||

|

|
|
I CONSIDER THE GAME IN 3 LEVELS. THE FIRST LEVEL IS OUTSIDE OF THE
|
|||
|
|
CASTLE, THE SECOND LEVEL IS INSIDE, AND THE THIRD IS UNDER THE FIRST
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL. EACH LEVEL HAS ITS OWN GROUP OF FIGHTERS, ALTHOUGH THE THIRD
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL IS SOMEWHAT INTERMIXED.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
YOU MUST HAVE COMPLETE MASTERY OF THE CONTROLS IN ORDER TO WIN THIS
|
|||
|
|
GAME. IF YOU CAN'T CONTROL YOUR MAN, PRACTICE. IT IS NOT TOO
|
|||
|
|
DIFFICULT, USING THE JOYSTICK OF COURSE.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL ONE
|
|||
|
|
---------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WHEN YOU START THIS LEVEL, YOU HAVE JUST CLIMBED THE CASTLE AND YOU
|
|||
|
|
ARE STANDING IN FRONT OF AN ENEMY. NOTICE THIS MAN'S HEAD. IT IS BY
|
|||
|
|
THE HEAD, OR MASK, THAT EACH FIGHTER IS DISTINGUISHED FROM THE OTHER.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
AGAINST THESE FIGHTERS OF LEVEL ONE, THERE ARE TWO STRATEGIES YOU CAN
|
|||
|
|
USE.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. KICK IN THE FOOT METHOD
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THIS METHOD IS ALMOST "CHEAP." THESE FIGHTERS WILL MOVE TOWARDS
|
|||
|
|
YOU CONSTANTLY. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS STAND BACK AND WHENEVER
|
|||
|
|
THEY MOVE FOR- WARD, DO A DOWNWARD KICK THREE TIMES. IF YOU DO
|
|||
|
|
THIS A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF TIMES, THE MAN WILL DIE. YOU MIGHT
|
|||
|
|
SUFFER A FEW BLOWS, BUT THAT IS NO PROBLEM. YOU WILL KILL ALL THE
|
|||
|
|
GUARDS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. BANZAI METHOD
|
|||
|
|
THE OTHER STRATEGY YOU CAN USE ON THE FIRST LEVEL GUARDS IS THE SO
|
|||
|
|
CALLED BANZAI METHOD. ALL YOU DO HERE IS PRESS BOTH BUTTONS ALL
|
|||
|
|
THE TIME WHILE MOVING FORWARD. BY PRESSING BOTH BUTTONS, YOU WILL
|
|||
|
|
BE KICK- ING AND PUNCHING RANDOMLY, THUS CONFUSING AND KILLING THE
|
|||
|
|
GUARD. THIS METHOD WILL NOT WORK ON ANY OTHER LEVEL, I GUARANTEE
|
|||
|
|
IT.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
HINTS: REMEMBER THAT THE FIRST LEVEL GUARD WILL ALWAYS BE MOVING
|
|||
|
|
FORWARD. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS BE REMEMBERING THAT HE WILL BE ON THE
|
|||
|
|
WRONG FOOT FOR AN ATTACK.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
AFTER YOU KILL THE FIRST GUARD, RUN IMMEDIATELY. AFTER THE INTER- NAL
|
|||
|
|
DISPLAY, AN ENEMY GUARD WILL BEGIN TO RUN TO YOU. KEEP RUNNING WHEN
|
|||
|
|
THE SCREEN SWITCHES BACK TO YOU. WHEN IT SWITCHES BACK TO THE GUARD,
|
|||
|
|
AND THEN TO YOU, COUNT TO TWO AND LET UP. YOU WILL BE IN PERFECT
|
|||
|
|
POSITION FOR AN ATTACK.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL TWO
|
|||
|
|
---------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
(THE BIRD APPEARS IN THIS LEVEL. PLEASE SEE THE EXPLANATION OF THE
|
|||
|
|
BIRD IN THE THIRD LEVEL)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
NOTE THAT THE FIRST GUARD ENCOUNTERED IN THE SECOND LEVEL IS A FIRST
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL GUARD!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THIS LEVEL IS MUCH LIKE THE FIRST, EXCEPT THAT THE GUARDS DO NOT MOVE
|
|||
|
|
FORWARD ALL THE TIME. THIS ELIMINATES THE "KICK IN THE FOOT" METHOD.
|
|||
|
|
ALSO, THE BANZAI METHOD WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE THE GUARDS ARE OFTEN
|
|||
|
|
WAITING FOR AN ATTACK.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WHEN YOU ENCOUNTER A LEVEL TWO GUARD, HE WILL USUALLY, AFTER THE USUAL
|
|||
|
|
TANGLE AND SEPERATION, BEGIN A KICKING SEQUENCE. BY SAYING THE "USUAL
|
|||
|
|
TANGLE AND SEPERATION," I AM ALLUDING TO THE FACT THAT YOU WILL RUSH
|
|||
|
|
UP TO HIM, FIGHT A BIT, AND THEN BACK OFF OR BE KNOCKED OFF. ANYWAY,
|
|||
|
|
WHEN YOU SEPERATE, THE GUARD WILL DO SEVERAL 1-KICKS, AND THEN EITHER
|
|||
|
|
MOVE FORWARD OR BEING DOING 3-KICKS. A 1-KICK IS A SINGLE KICK, WHILE
|
|||
|
|
A 3-KICK IS A SERIES OF 3 KICKS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN DO: WHEN THE GUARD DOES A 1-KICK, AS SOON AS HIS
|
|||
|
|
FOOR BEGINS TO RETREAT, MOVE FORWARD AND PUNCH. I USUALLY PREFER TO
|
|||
|
|
PUNCH DOWNWARD IN THIS ATTACK, BUT IT IS NOT THAT IMPORTANT. NOW, YOU
|
|||
|
|
MIGHT BE ASKING WHAT IF HE IS DOING A 3-KICK AND I THINK IT IS A
|
|||
|
|
1-KICK? THE ANSWER IS THAT YOU WILL GET KNOCKED SEVERAL TIMES.
|
|||
|
|
KNOWING THAT THE FIRST SEVERAL TIMES ARE 1-KICKS, YOU CAN EITHER WAIT
|
|||
|
|
UNTIL HE BEGINS 3-KICKS OR JUST GUESS AND HOPE. IF YOU GUESS WRONG
|
|||
|
|
AND THE BLOWS START FALLING, PULL OUT BECAUSE YOU ARE IN A BAD
|
|||
|
|
POSITION TO KICK, YOUR LEGS ARE CROSSED, AND YOU CAN NOT BENEFIT OUT
|
|||
|
|
OF A 1 FOR 4 TRADE OFF.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
IF THE GUARD BEGINS TO CHARGE AT YOU, THE KICK IN THE FOOT METHOD WILL
|
|||
|
|
NOT ALWAYS WORK, MAINLY BECAUSE THE GUARD COMES AT YOU WITH A KICK
|
|||
|
|
ALREADY GOING. WHAT YUO SHOULD DO HERE:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. HOPE HE IS DOING A 1-KICK AND GET KNOCKED BUT THE PUNCH HIM.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OR--
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. PULL BACK QUICKLY, WAIT UNTIL HIS FOOT IS RELEASING, AND THEN GO
|
|||
|
|
IN FOR THE KILL.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
IF YOU ARE LOSING THE FIGHT, I WOULD RECOMMEND THE SECOND METHOD.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THE FALLING GATE:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WHEN YOU GET TO THE END OF THE SECOND LEVEL, THERE IS A GATE. IF YOU
|
|||
|
|
RUN OR WALK THROUGH THE GATE, IT FALLS ON YOU AND YOU DIE. ALWAYS.
|
|||
|
|
THIS IS WHAT YOU DO. WALK VERY SLOWLY UP TO THE GATE AND GET RIGHT
|
|||
|
|
NEXT TO IT. THEN QUICKLY MOVE FORWARD AND THE BACK. YOU MUST DO THIS
|
|||
|
|
FAST OF YOU WILL DIE. THE GATE WILL THEN FALL, BUT, NOT ON YOU. AS
|
|||
|
|
THE GATE BEGINS TO RISE, RUN INTO IT. NOTICE I SAID, RUN, NOT WALK.
|
|||
|
|
YOU WILL LOSE A POINT EVERY TIME YOUR HEAD HITS THE GATE, BUT KEEP
|
|||
|
|
RUNNING AND START EARLY SO YOU HAVE TIME. AS YOU RUN THROUGH THE
|
|||
|
|
GATE, YOU GET TO THE THIRD LEVEL.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
LEVEL THREE
|
|||
|
|
-----------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THE LEVEL THREE GUARDS ARE NOT STUPID AND ARE FAST. THEY WILL NOT
|
|||
|
|
CHARGE FOOLISHLY TOWARDS YOU, AND WILL WAIT FOR THE KILL. ALSO AT
|
|||
|
|
THIS POINT, YOU HAVE VERY FEW POINTS COMPARED TO THE GUARDS, SO BE
|
|||
|
|
CAREFUL AND WATCH HOW MANY POINTS YOU HAVE.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THE BASIC STRATEGY THAT I EMPLOY WHEN FIGHTING LEVEL THREE GUARDS IS
|
|||
|
|
THIS:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. WAIT UNTIL THE START DOING KICKS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. MOVE IN QUICKLY AND HIT THEM WITH A PUNCH, MAYBE TWO IF YOU ARE
|
|||
|
|
LUCKY. IF THEY STAND THERE, KICK THEM, IF THEY MOVE BACK, THAT IS
|
|||
|
|
FINE. YOU JUST INFLICTED 1 OR 2 POINTS ON THEM AT NO COST TO YOUR-
|
|||
|
|
SELF.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. IF THEY INSIST ON FIGHTING, YOU BEST BET IS TO PUNCH. IN THE TIME
|
|||
|
|
THAT IT TAKES TO GET A KICK GOING, THEY WILL PUNCH YOU AWAY.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
REMEMBER THAT IF ONE KICK NAILS YOU, MORE ARE COMING, TO GET OUT OF
|
|||
|
|
THE WAY FAST.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
THE BIRD: THE BIRD IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KILL. HOWEVER, ONCE YOU GET
|
|||
|
|
IT DOWN, IT BECOMES EASY.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
AFTER YOU HAVE KILLED 4 LEVEL 3 GUARDS, YOU WILL SUDDENLY GET A LARGE
|
|||
|
|
AMOUNT OF POINTS. YOU WILL GET TO A BLOCKED DOOR IN FRONT OF YOU.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
WHEN YOU GO TO KICK IT IN, DO AN UPWARDS KICK. AS SOON AS THE DOOR
|
|||
|
|
BREAKS IN, WAIT A MILLISECOND, AND THEN DO 2 MORE UP KICKS. THIS WILL
|
|||
|
|
KNOCK THE BIRD BEFORE IT GETS A CHANCE ON YOU.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
FROM HERE ON, IT IS UP TO YOU. I PREFER KICKING THE BIRD AND IT IS
|
|||
|
|
EASIEST WHEN IT IS ON THE TOP LEVEL. JUST WAIT UNTIL THE BIRD IS 1
|
|||
|
|
1/2 INCHES IN FRONT OF YOU, AND THEN KICK 3 TIMES. IF YOU GET IT
|
|||
|
|
GOOD, IF NOT, TRY AGAIN.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
AKIMA HIMSELF: HE REALLY IS NO DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER LEVEL 3
|
|||
|
|
GUARD. IGNORE THE FACT THAT HE APPEARS BIGGER AND CONCENTRATE ON
|
|||
|
|
GETTING IN 1 OR 2 PUNCHES AFTER SOME KICKS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
KILL HIM, RUN INTO THE ROOM WHERE THE PRINCESS IS STANDING. IF YOU
|
|||
|
|
WALK, SHE KILLS YOU. JUST RUN RIGHT INTO HER.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
ONE TECHNIQUE THAT I DID NOT MENTION IS SPAR FIGHTING. IN THIS
|
|||
|
|
METHOD, JUST WAIT UNTIL HE IS NOT KICKING, JUMP UP AND PUNCH. THERE
|
|||
|
|
IS A DELAYED REACTION, SO PULL BACK RIGHT AFTER YOU HAVE HIT THE
|
|||
|
|
BUTTON. YOU MIGHT THINK YOU WILL NOT PUNCH, BUT YOU WILL AND USUALLY
|
|||
|
|
HIT. SOMETIMES YOU WILL GET HIT BACK, BUT NOT ALWAYS. YOU CAN USE
|
|||
|
|
THIS TECHNIQUE ON THE LEVEL 3 GUARDS WHICH CAN BE DIFFICULT
|
|||
|
|
SOMETIMES.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I HOPE THIS EXPLAINS HOW TO WIN IN THIS GAME. JUST PRACTICE, AND IT
|
|||
|
|
BECOMES EASY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR PROBLEMS, CONTACT ME ON
