User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★☆ A Request for the Developers
As a lifelong devoted "Karateka" who started playoing this game in the 1980s on my beloved Apple ii computer and is still happily playing it on this app today, I have one request to REALLY bring the total 1980s classic experience back. Developers, could you provide Bluetooth keyboard and Bluetooth game controller functionality? It would be truly "authentic" if the user could play Karateka on an iPad or iPhone without having the massive online touchscreen keypad obscuring the scenery.
★★★★☆ Please update to 64-bit for iOS 11
Loved playing this on my Apple ][e back in the day, and I would like to continue playing this for years to come. Please update the code to work on iOS 11!
★★★★★ The greatest ever NEEDS AN UPDATE!
I paid good money for this great game and deserve an update so I can still play it in iOS 11. Don’t turn your back on us fans of this game!
This is quite possibly the greatest video game ever made!
I can remember playing it back in the 80's on my Commodore 64 over and over again. Even after completing the game I would still go back and play it again.
It's so simple yet so dramatic in its presentation. I am so stoked that it has finally made its way back into the hands of gamers!
★★★★★ Thank you for the 64-bit update!
Thank you very much for the 64-bit update. I was worried this would be lost along with other excellent classics.
★★☆☆☆ Low Star Rating because they abandoned the other version
Read all reviews
While it is appreciated that somebody at DotEmu finally pulled their head out, and updated this free version (many thanks!) for 64-bit compatibility, it makes no sense that they have seemingly abandoned the high-res updated version.
Obviously, they understand how to press a button (so to speak) and recompile into 64-bit, so why not do it for the modern version?
Developer doesn’t respond to any attempts to communicate with them.
