Notes: The narrative of Ka Mate is this: You are an American television personality shooting footage in Hawaii, when you here of New Zealand and the mysterious haka, Ka Mate. You switch gears and go to investigate the story of the haka yourself, hoping for your big television comeback.
As Adam Goodall very patiently reviewed for The Spinoff, this game plays more as if it is set in North America - you kill rabbits, deer, bears, and other animals not found in Aotearoa, and there is almost no mention of Māori people at all; other than leveraging warrior stereotypes. Gross.
