How it feels

A fast-paced, retro-inspired action game with a linear story and comic book visuals, where you fight through enemies in a colorful 2.5D world.

What players say

Players call it an unofficial remake of the original NES Ninja Gaiden with updated graphics and music. Many love the nostalgia but split on polish: some praise the challenge and addictive gameplay, others report persistent bugs, crashes, poor physics, and no D-pad support even years after release.
