One of those games that never made it to English and probably shouldn't have made it to Japanese. You're a ninja boy and you fight grey ninja boys by jumping around on multi-level plateaus and shoot chinese stars at each other.

They suck. You are this little cloth with eyes poking out. The enemies are really small. Might as well be an Atari game and you can just shoot blocks at each other.

Sound: 2
It tries to have this chinese sounding music, but it is bad. Like when you die, it is the most random put together tones. The level music isn't bad, just the same on every level. But it doesn't last long, cause you die quick.

Gameplay: 1
Not fun, ever. I guess if you played this game alot you could figure out the patterns and actually make some progress. But the computer will sometimes kill you after you have been in the game for only a split second. Manuevering just sucks.

Overall: 1
Nothing I enjoyed about this game. Maybe hardcore oldskool Japanese gamers or ninja fans might like this game, but I hated it. The fact that there was a Ninja Boy one and it made it to a sequel just blows my mind. I never want to play this game again.

I just hit myself in the crouch and it was better than this game.
