INTRODUCTION
Tae Kwon Do, a martial art developed by the Korean people to fight oppressors, has long been gaining in popularity around the world. What once was
taught only in back rooms and small studios has exploded into spacious
gyms and the routines of the rich and famous. More than 70 million martial
artists around the world practice Tae Kwon Do every day on every continent
except Antarctica. Tae Kwon Do has truly become the worlds martial art.
Everyone trains for different reasons, but the elite athletes desire more than
just promotion tests and board breaking. For those elites there is Tae Kwon
Do competition. Combining the pure essence of Tae Kwon Do with modern
rules of point scoring and knockouts, tournaments around the world are
bringing out the best of the best. Athletes train for months and years, put
everything on the line at the most grueling and challenging tournaments
in the world, all to be the best. To be the greatest. To be the Tae Kwon Do
World Champion.

PLAYING THE GAME

Main Menu
The Main menu is the screen that leads to all the other screens. Its your
gateway to quick match fights, championship mode, game options and the
practice mode.
Click Quick Match to play a quick match against the CPU or your friends on
the same computer.
Click Championship Mode to either continue a World Champion Career or
start a new one.
Click Options to view the graphics, sounds, and game play options you can
change.
The Practice section is where you can learn how to control your fighters
movements and kicks, with the keyboard or game pad controller.

Quick Match

The first step in a quick match is to choose which ready-made fighter you
wish to play as. Then, select a fighter as your opponent. Each fighter has his
or her unique stats and style of fighting. Youll have to play against them to
find out how each one differs. The red and blue sides indicate the color of
each fighters protective equipment and give no advantage to either fighter.
Select what input control you wish to use for each fighter. If you wish to play
against a friend on the same computer, you will need to have at least one
game pad plugged into your computer. If you have two game pads plugged
in, both players can play with game pads.
Then select the number of rounds you wish to play and the length of each
round. Note that the match can end sooner if you reach a point-gap or ceiling
rule (depending on the rules you selected in options). The match will go to a
sudden death round if tied after all normal rounds have completed.
Lastly you should select the location of the match and the match settings.
Each arena has a different look and feel and some have different sized rings
to move in.

CHAMPIONSHIP MODE

Create a New Career

If this is your first time playing the Championship Mode you will need to
create a new career. Simply click any of the empty portraits to start your new
career.

Continue a Career

If you wish to continue progress in your championship career, simply click on

any of the fighters that have your previous careers in them. This will take you
to your career at the last point you played.

GAME OPTIONS
Controls

Allows you to change your default controller between keyboard and game
pad. We recommend using a game pad for best game play experience

Game Play

The Options for game play set your player options for tournaments and
quick match play. Setting the difficulty will affect the computers ability to fight
against you. You also can change the match rules, such as point gap and
penalties.

Sound

This section lets you change the volume of music and sound effects for the
menus, as well as the crowd noises, kihaps, kick impacts, and all the various
sound effects in the game.

PLAYING A TOURNAMENT
The Championship mode of Taekwondo World Champion consists of a series
of 20 increasingly challenging tournaments that will test not only your fighting
skills but your will and courage as well.
Early on, tournaments are small and the number of competitors in your division will reflect this. If there are seven other competitors in your division that
will mean you will need to win three matches to take home a gold medal. The
more competitors there are, the more matches you will have to win to win the
gold medal.

Confidence Points
Winning medals at tournaments gives your fighter Confidence Points. The
higher you place, the more Confidence Points you earn. You use Confidence
Points to improve your core stats and kick stats. Once you spend your points
on improving your character they are gone forever and cannot be changed.
After each tournament you will be taken to your Core/Kick Stats screen. Here
you can see the total number of points you have to spend as well as bars
representing how much skill you have in each stat.

Traits

For each tournament tree unlocked during Championship Mode, you will
earn the right to add one more trait to your fighter. You can change your traits
at any point and mix and match them in any way. There are 34 different traits
that can be combined up to five at a time at the highest level. This allows you
to really tweak your fighter to get an advantage in matches.

Saving Progress

Tournaments can be long and challenging tasks! You may not be able to beat
the harder tournaments on your first try, or you may find that youve got to do
other things and leave in the middle of a tournament. No problem!
If you ever find yourself having to leave in the middle of a tournament, the
game will automatically save your progress. The next time you continue your
career you will find yourself right where you left off.
If you lose in a tournament without receiving a gold medal, you can re-enter
the same tournament and try for a better place. You may even be able to go
to other tournaments that you havent competed in and earn more confidence points which may get you some bonuses that give you the edge you
need to win.

Withdrawing from a Tournament

Withdrawing from a tournament is sometimes necessary when you want

to try another tournament first or arent doing well enough to continue. But
remember, if you withdraw from a tournament the game will reset your progress in that tournament! So be sure you mean it before you withdraw!

KICKS
Kicks in Taekwondo World Champion are separated into four types: Basic,
Speed, Power, and Jumping.

Basic Kicks

Basic kicks are exactly that. They do average damage to an opponent, but
they also cost very little to your fighters balance. Basic kicks are great to use
as setup kicks to the power and jumping kicks.

Rear Leg Roundhouse to Body

This kick is the bread and butter of any Taekwondo competitor. A good mix of
speed and power makes this kick useful in all situations. It also is a perfect
opener to combos and more advanced kicks.

Push Kick to Body

This is a great kick to drive your opponent into a retreat and take control of
the match. But it is a difficult kick to score with and takes lots of practice to
master.

Front Leg Roundhouse to Body

This is one of the fastest kicks you can throw. But the reach is very short and
the damage done is very light. Its more for scoring points, but you have to
have proper timing to use it effectively.

Front Hook Kick to Head

A fast basic kick that goes for the head. Lots of competitors love unloading
this fast kick on unsuspecting opponents, but it is not as practical as the
roundhouse kick and is usually just for flashy performances.

10

Speed Kicks

Speed kicks take your favorite kicks and add a bit of velocity to them. Some
are faster versions of power kicks, and some are faster versions of basic
kicks. But all of them share in common an increase in speed at the expense
of your balance.

Fast Rear Leg Roundhouse to Body

Like the slower more powerful and stable basic roundhouse kick, the fast
roundhouse kick is a great point scoring technique. It does take a lot more
balance and runs the risk of leaving you open for a knockdown because of
that.

Cut Kick to Body

When you need to stop an opponents charge this is the kick to use. It is not
as strong as the rear leg push kick, but is faster.

Fast Axe Kick to Head

Not quite as powerful as the standard axe kick, the fast axe kick looks almost
the same except is thrown with much less force. It costs you more balance,
but is delivered with lightening speed.

Roundhouse Shuffle Kick to Body and Head

This kick is almost two kicks in one. Your setup move acts as a fake and can
often score to the body before your other foot hits the head. This is a longreaching kick and is great to try to catch your opponent when at a distance.

Power Kicks

Power kicks have a slight increase in demand on a fighters balance and

throwing many of them in a row without a rest can result in dangerously low
balance. But the benefit is they do much more amounts of damage to an opponent and will often result in knockdowns or even knockouts. The kicks can
often be the finishing touch to a charging attack.

Rear Leg Roundhouse to Head

The only thing better than a roundhouse to the body is one to the head. This
is a solid kick that balances both speed and power and aims for the two-point
mark.

11

Back Kick to Body

If youve ever been hit with a back kick you need no description of this kick.
Perhaps the most powerful kick in all of Tae Kwon Do, the back kick can not
only knock the wind out of an opponent, but when properly delivered, can
even knock an opponent out.

Axe Kick to Head

When it comes to a fast and powerful shot to the head, few kicks beat the
axe kick. Depending on your timing and distances you may catch an opponent anywhere from the head, face, or even the upper body. It definitely is
a kick for close-quarters.

Spinning Hook Kick to Head

A front hook kick is fast and light. The spinning hook kick is fast and powerful. The difference often leads to many knock-outs by spinning hook kicks.

Jumping Kicks

Jumping kicks are similar in power to power kicks, but they are much faster
and so make a devastating finishing move against unsuspecting opponents.
The downside, however, is that they cost a significant amount of balance. If
you decide to throw more than one or two you will find yourself at the mercy
of one counter kick that might knock you down.

Jumping Rear Leg Roundhouse to Head

This kick is a simple strong kick. It uses less balance points than some of
the other jumping kicks, but also doesnt provide as much of a hit to your
opponent. The range on this kick is second only to the Jump Front Leg
Roundhouse.

Jumping Back Kick to Body

This kick is a spectacular way to knock somebody down or out. It provides a

great amount of power and a great amount of speed. But it does cost a lot of
balance points as a trade off.

Jumping Side Kick to Head

This is a strange kick that isnt done often in sparring, but one that can be
very effective. It is especially effective when trying to force the opponent to
back out of the ring or otherwise force your opponent into a bad position.

12

Jumping Spinning Hook Kick to Head

This is arguably the best knockout kick available to any Taekwondo competitor. It combines the power of a regular spinning hook kick with the speed and
added reach of a jump. While costing a lot of balance, it still serves as an
excellent finishing move.

BLOCKS

There are two kinds of blocks in Taekwondo World Champion: torso blocks
and head blocks. Both types of blocks will prevent points from being scored
on either your torso or head, and will reduce damage taken by your opponent
kicking you.

HEALTH AND BALANCE BARS

The health and balance bars displayed at the top of the screen show the
remaining health and balance for you and your opponent. Different kicks take
away different amounts of balance. Getting hit by kicks will decrease both
your balance and your health. If you avoid getting hit and avoid throwing
kicks your balance will recover quickly. Your health also recovers, but at a
slower pace than your balance.

KNOCKDOWNS
If your, or your opponents, balance bar is reduced to empty, you will be
knocked down. You cannot knock yourself down. Only your opponents kicks
or punches will knock you down. If you dont have enough balance to throw
the kick youre trying to throw, nothing will happen.

Getting Up From a Knockdown

If you are knocked down, press the 1 button on your game pad or the A key
on your keyboard rapidly to get back up. The more health you have, the
easier it is to get back up. Knocking the other fighter down results in an extra
point for you.

13

If you lose all the health in your health bar, you get knocked down automatically. The difference is that when your health bar is empty, you will not be
able to get up at all and you, will be knocked out and the match will end. The
same rules apply to your opponent.

CREATING A FIGHTER
Core Stats

The core stats of your fighter determine how much damage his kicks do, how
fast he moves around the ring, how fast his kicks are, and how much damage he can take without getting knocked down.
It takes a careful balance of stats to create a fighter that works well for you.
Experiment with several different styles to determine which is your favorite.

Stamina

This stat determines how much health you have, which determines how
many kicks you can take before getting knocked out. It also affects how
quickly your health regenerates during a match.

Training

This stat determines how much balance you have, which keeps you from
getting knocked down while kicking. Higher values will also benefit you with
faster balance regeneration during matches.

Defense

This determines how much damage you are able to block. The higher the
value, the more damage is reduced when you are kicked.

Agility

This stat affects the speed of your kicks. The more agility you have, the
faster your kicks will be thrown.

Footwork

This affects your ability to move quickly around the ring. A higher footwork
stat will allow you to move in and out and around the ring easily.

14

Kick Stats

Kick Stats are broken into four basic kick types. Back Kick, Hook Kick,
Roundhouse Kick, and Axe Kick. Each point you put in one of the types
increases your abilities in each kick listed under that group (see next page).
