This game was made in 1993. Its graphics are kind of stupid, but I have found that this is one of those games you can never forget, though. It runs in both Windows and Dos, but you have to install in Dos. If you ever see this game at like a garage sale, I suggest you buy it. It's still cool. The sound, though, sounds like a gameboy. It's also pretty enhanced for its time because most of the evil guys are never in the same spot, which I will explain later. **************************************************** (2)- Story The story is that when you were little, this kind of Ninja guy came to your house and with your parents permision took you away. He trained you to be a ninja. Now it's 20 years later and the town is overrun with evil Ninja guys. You have been chosen to go through the nine different levels and rescue your town. It's a pretty cool plot if you think about it. **************************************************** (3)- Game controls Left/Right arrows- Run to the left/right Ctrl key- Jump Down Arrow- Duck Down arrow+ctrl- Drop from a platorm Up arrow- throw a magic star Alt- attack Space bar- heal (only if you have magic) Enter- Throw stars everywhere **************************************************** (4)- Gameplay 4.1- Stars You can collect stars everywhere and each color is different: Red will increase magic greatly yellow will increase magic slightly Pink will give you an extra life Green will heal you 4.2- Villians --What Their name is-- Looks- what they look like Weapon- what weapon they use Hits to die- How many times you have to hit them with your sword Levels in- What levels there in.

It is best that you hit some body, move away, then hit them again. During anytime you can use your magic to heal yourself by pressing [Space Bar]) -----The Village----- This is where you start out. First, jump to get the magic star. Then, go on the platform. Kill the assassin. Go right. Kill the assassin who comes after you. Then kill the dog. Jump up and get the star. Then go right and jump on the platform. Kill the assassin and jump up. Get the stars and continue going right. Kill the archer. Then jump over the ditch with spikes and kill the other archer. Go right and at the edge of the cliff jump to get the star. Then go left and kill the archer. Go right while dodging arrows and kill the next archer. Three assassins will then come at you. Kill them without mercy, go right, across the bridge, and get the star. If you read my intro, you know I stated that one reason the game is good was because the guys are never at the same place. This is one of those times. Sometimes a dog will fall and jump at you. Sometimes it won't. If it does just kill it off. If it doesn't, you'll meet him later. Go right and kill the archers. Then jump up and kill the two assassins on the temple. (If you didn't see the dog before, he'll be here.) Get the stars and go right. Go across the bridge where the arrow is pointing to get to the next level. You passed the first level! Hope you didn't die too many times, seeing how I did the first time. -----The Approach----- Dumb name for a level. Anyway, once you start out jump onto the platform there. Don't kill anything. Once there watch out for the dogs. They can jump up and hurt you. Go onto the top of the metal pyriamid thingie. Jump again and you'll be standing somewhere. Jump again and you'll be able to see a big tree. Jump onto the first branch and kill the assassin. Jump left to the other branch and kill the assasin, then jump right onto the next bench. Kill the archer and the assassin. Jump left and kill the assassin, go left to get the star. Go right and kill the other archer and assassin. Jump left, then right. Kill the last archer and assasin. Jump left to get the star, then go right. Run as fast as you can, then at the very last second jump. Hopefully with some luck you'll land on the willow tree. Jump right onto the other willow. Here is another kind of vareable. Sometimes there are some assassins that are on the branch, sometimes there not. If they are, jump to the branch and kill them. If not, just jump to the branch. Jump left, then jump up. Jump right, but beware, an assasin falls at you. Kill him off. Jump left. When you jump up again, an archer and an assassin fall down. Kill the archer, but don't mind the assasin, he is on the level under you. Jump right and get the four stars. Then run right and jump at the last second. You will land on another tree, under a branch that has an archer on it. Jump right and kill the assasin, jump left and kill the archer, and then jump right. An assasin will already be there, then an archer falls. Kill them both and get the stars. Run right and jump at the very last second again. You'll land on a bridge. There will be an archer with his dog. Kill'em off and go right. Another Robin Hood with his Lassie will be there, kill them. Go right, and yet another archer with his dog. Kill them. Go right and kill the assasin, then go right and kill a dog. Go right and an assasin with his dog will be there. Kill them and go right. Kill the last assasin with his dog and go right. Jump up when you reach a dead end. Go left and kill an archer, then go right and destroy his friend. Go left, then jump left. Get the stars and kill the assasin. Jump left, jump up, and then kill the archer. Jump right and kill the archer that falls. Jump right and abolish the archer that falls. Jump right and kill the assasin. Jump up and kill the assasins. Shortly after doing that jump and kill the archer. Jump up again and kill the archer. Lastly, go right and get ready for the next level. -----Ascent----- Began by killing the assassin that comes running towards you. Jump onto the platform right next to the long one with the dog. Don't worry about the assasin to your left, but if you must, kill him. Anyway, jump right and kill the dog. **More to be added** -----Graveyard----- **More to be added** -----Guardian------ **More to be added** **************************************************** (5)- Version history- 3-19-01 [1.0]- Finsihed ist level, started second.
