“With gravity-defying game play at every turn, no enemy is safe from the wit
and attitude of young Ninja,” says Jon Kromrey, Senior Producer at Namco Hometek
Inc. “This ultimate warrior will have you shredding, swinging and kick jumping
well beyond the holiday season.”
From Namco:
I-Ninja offers a high intensity action adventure experience in five
exquisitely detailed environments, each strategically designed to test rookie
protagonist Ninja and his unique skills. Challenged by the evil villain Master
O-Dor and his army of evil Ranx, Ninja travels from beaches to mountains and
beyond, taking on a cast of fearsome enemies with an assortment of weapons,
rage-based power-ups and a host of gravity-defying moves. Armed with years of
training and a giant ego to boot, he earns new Ninja belts, recovers lost relics
and comes to face his nemesis in an ultimate showdown. While graceful in honor,
Ninja proves deadly in combat.
With the destiny of the world resting on his big head, Ninja challenges the
powers of gravity to traverse and succeed in any situation. Utilizing
specialized manga-style ninja moves, Ninja runs on walls, swings from chains,
grinds rails, kick jumps and turns his sword into a helicopter. Along with his
abilities, Ninja has many weapons at his disposal, including shurikens, swords,
blowguns, rocket launchers and guided missiles. Combined with high-end CGI
graphics, hand-painted environments and six cinematic movies from renowned
animated filmmakers Don Bluth and Gary Goldman of Don Bluth Films, Inc., no
stone is left unturned in I-Ninja.
