Player's Review
"Now is the time for you TSUKIKAGE, the spirit of the great white wolf, to take the form of the Ninja and slay the Evil One.
The beasts in the bowels of the earth await you, with their cunning moves and lethal weapons. Dodge the devil spearsman who will stab you from underneath and leap the spine chilling Chinese plank to avoid those nasty ninjas!
Choose carefully and. wisely your arms, will the Samurai sword suffice, or maybe the Ninja Deathstar or even dynamite and the sharpest and deadliest of lassoon blades! Collect the crystals which will give you, ninja spirits that follow your every move and attack, extra energy or the chance to use the destructive rope of fire!
Traverse the most treacherous of territories, over perilous boardwalks, across marshes and rope bridges then climb your way up the sheer rock face-dodging the poisonous gas as you go! Then with all the strength that you can muster, face the final battle with the dreaded Last Warlock!!"
Not much to say. The game is quite short but still quite challenging. Collision detection is ok with clear contact being made before saying it killed you but it gets a bit flickery with many sprites on screen and with the game running quite fast, its very easy to run into something if you dare blink.
The levels can be tackled in different ways. With four different weapons available, you can take you time and deal with enemies one by one or try to jump and run past them to the end. There is a fairly small time limit to watch out for though so don't take to long.
Weapons have an upgrade available as well as shadow ninjas to help you by collecting the magic dropped by yellow ninjas. It may be ideal to farm them on level three as I never saw any more of them after that point. if you take a hit and die, you restart from that point, but all your upgrades are gone.
