Our verdict
Best of the Best is a good pick for realistic fighting fans.
Best of the Best: Championship Karate is a 1992 kick-boxing game from Loriciel, a follow-up to Panza Kick Boxing. It was released on the Amiga, DOS, SNES and other systems.
Gameplay
The game is a realistic kick-boxing sim:
- Moves: A big selection of punches and kicks.
- Training: Build up your fighter.
- Championship: Fight your way up the rankings.
Its rotoscoped animation is smooth, and the training adds depth, but it’s slow compared with arcade fighters.
Verdict
Best of the Best is a solid, realistic kick-boxing game. It’s slower than Street Fighter-style games, but rewarding.
