Karate Survivor

Environmental manipulation is key to survival. Push objects, trigger scaffolding collapses, or slam them with a microwave door. Craft your own fighting style in Karate Survivor, with hundreds of attacks at your disposal. Chain together up to six moves in unique combos to fit your strategic approach. Explore diverse environments, each offering distinct challenges and combat items. Conquer fearsome bosses in each zone, pushing your martial arts prowess to the limit.
