The main goal of this game is to help Karate Joe punch flying objects thrown to him. Punches are performed by pressing A button, and must be timed correctly to the rhythm of the music. Upon hearing "Hit 3", the player must hit three consecutive items, plus a rock. On occasion, a lightbulb will be thrown and start glowing yellow (instead of the usual pot) indicating that a barrel containing a bomb will be thrown next. After punching the barrel open, the bomb must then be kicked away by releasing A button at the same time.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This is the second time a Karate Man game variation has appeared in the Rhythm Heaven, with [[Karate Man Returns!|the first]] being in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' and [[Karate Man (Wii)|the third]] being in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''.
*Karate Man is the last "regular" game in ''Rhythm Heaven'' before the credits, and the last non-sequel, non-remix game in the entire game, in direct contrast to ''Rhythm Tengoku'' having it as the first game. This formula would later be borrowed for Karate Man's appearance in ''Rhythm Heaven Fever''.
*Karate Man has parts in a total of six different songs, including its own song, its sequel, and remixes, making it the most recurring game in ''Rhythm Heaven''.
*Missing the last pot, even if play has been perfect up to that point, will result in a '''Try Again''' rating. A 'Barely' will not cause failure, however.
*Missing the first barrel is a guaranteed OK or Try Again.
*This is the only game to be in 4 remixes.
*This is the only game in the series to recurred for 4 remixes in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]].''
*In Megamix, due to the fact that every version appeared, the DS version was named "Karate Man Kicks!" The Wii version was named "[[Karate Man Combos!]]" And the GBA version is named "[[Karate Man Returns!]]"
*In Megamix, due to the fact that every version appeared, the DS version was named "Karate Man Kicks!" The Wii version was named "[[Karate Man Combos!]]" And the GBA version is named "[[Karate Man Returns!]]"
*Missing the first "punch-kick" costs you the Superb, and missing the last flowerpot is a guaranteed Try Again.
