In Karate Tomate players are in a extraordinary culinary martial arts tournament. Learn from the "Tomato", the great karate master, learning new fighting techniques and collecting the most trophies to win this game. But also collect enough kitchen knives to clear out enemy vegetables at the end of the game. Anyway, you should not be the player with the fewest knives! Then you lose - no matter how many trophies you have!
