Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Master O-Dor and his army of Ranx have invaded and slain almost all of the Ninja clan sworn to defend the land against evil. All except one aged and frail master simply know as "Sensei," and his angry, untrained rookie. In an effort to fight back, Sensei undertakes a secret mission to Robot Beach to seek the help of Yang, a legendary Ninja Guardian, who has one of the Rage Stones. Each mystic Rage Stone holds within it an awesome power to unlock and magnify the anger of whoever holds it. On the way to Robot Beach, however, Sensei is attacked and imprisoned by one of O-Dor’s henchmen. Sensei’s student is the last of the clan. He is "Ninja." This is his quest. The destiny of his world rests on his big head.

Features:

• In-game cinematics produced and directed by legendary filmmakers Don Bluth and Gary Goldman.
• Gravity-defying game play
• Run up walls, shred on rails, ride roller spheres and tear through levels with moves only the most insane Ninja would try
• Multiple weapon control systems
• Use shurikens, swords, blowguns, rocker launchers and more to take apart any foe that dares stand between Ninja and his missions
• Challenging enemies and ruthless bosses
• Fight the invading Ranx army on the group, in the air, in the sea – even face off with a menacing 150-foot giant robot
• Imaginative missions and environments

5.0 out of 5 stars I-Ninja ROCKS!!!!, December 5, 2003

By	The Ninj (UK) - See all my reviews

Harken to the words of an actual gamer, someone who recognises originality, variety, fun and gameplay when he sees it.

This game rocks. Its quite simple really, the control method is intuitive and easy to master, making complex-looking moves and combos easy to execute. Running up a vertical wall and kick-jumping between buildings and platforms is just as easy as chain-swinging over ravines or slicing an enemy in half, either vertically or horizontally.
Battling enemies is where the game comes into its own. The combat system is a cinch to learn and use and you soon find yourself fighting up to 10 foes at once. And winning!

Of the 64 levels, there are only a few I've not finished yet, due to the addictive nature of the game. just hopng it unlocks something cool! There are sword upgrades a-plenty, and defeating bosses teaches you new rage skills, which help give you a further edge over the enemy.

The speed of Sonic, the variety of Mario and the sword skills to best Zelda. How can this not ROCK?!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun in a box, December 5, 2003

By A Customer

I've played this game extensively and i have to say its the most fun i've had in a long time. The way the game is put together, using elements old and new and fusing them into a coherent whole makes it a joy to play.
It doesn't take itself at all seriously, and its sense of fun draws in the player so they can't help but smile at the main characters antics.
It has a nice graphical style, cartoony but solid, control is well thought out and instinctive, and theres a decent amount of gameplay for those wanting to play to completion. Well designed gaming pleasure.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cool Ninja Game, August 24, 2004

A Kid's Review

Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

I bought I-ninja about three days ago, and I'm near the end!
The ninja moves are cool and all but this game is kind of short.
The story is quite entertaining and the controls are simple, but sometimes, it is intensely hard.The system is imaginative: you earn grades at the end of each mission wich help to gain new belts, like in karate! To beat each boss you need a higher belt, and to the number of grades you need for each belt increases, so you'll often come back to previous worlds. I'm 12(hey, maybe that's why i'll beat it fast!), and this game is still pretty cool. So, if you're a fan of ninjas, get this game.
