The Ninja

The Ninja is a 2D arcade game where you must do away with all the ninjas that appear on screen, using just your shurikens. The enemies always appear at different heights, meaning you need to be extremely alert in order to instantly take them out. If you're not quick enough, they'll end up finishing you off.

Controls in The Ninja are very simple: by tapping the screen and swiping gently from top to bottom you control the direction you fling your shuriken in. The idea is to get rid of your enemies like this. Bear in mind, however, that you need to hit them twice in the legs or chest, compared to just once if you manage to strike them in the head. That said, they only need to hit you once in order to do away with your character. Luckily on the right-hand side of the screen you have two buttons that let you jump and crouch down.

Using the coins you earn during the games you can make upgrades to your character. To start off with, your ninja has absolutely nothing at all, but you can buy new pieces of armor to protect yourself against certain blows, even to the head. You can also get new weapons with greater powers than the initial shuriken.

The Ninja is a new arcade game developed by BYV and offering a game experience similar to that of The Spearman or The Archers, plus some appealing new features like options to jump and crouch down to dodge enemy attacks.
