A straightforward retro action platformer with pixel graphics and a gentle samurai theme, focusing on environmental platforming and puzzles without open-ended exploration.

What players say

Players are split on this 8-bit platformer. Some enjoy the parkour and nostalgic feel, but many criticize it for reusing assets and mechanics from earlier Ninjahtic games with little innovation. Complaints include clunky controls, misleading hitboxes, and the inability to rebind keys on keyboard.
