There are a total of seven stages varying from woodlands, wastelands, swamps, temples and cliffs. Each stage begins with the player slashing his way to the end, until he confronts a level boss. The ninja is always armed with the sword Righteous Cloud which can be fluidly used to attack in all directions. Extra weapons include the Swirling Leaf (shurikens), the Bamboo Thunder (bombs), and the Rising Dragon (kusarigama). There are also several powerup items, such as one unleashing multiple ninja ghosts to assist the player.

Sheesh that's quite the jump you can do! I'm glad the attacks hit in a radius, and that you can smack away enemy projectiles. Otherwise this would be way too hard! Worth a full playthrough for sure

This game is freakin sweet. Multiple ninja friends is a nice touch. Powerups make for a great beat em up.

Fun as hell game. Can be a bit frustrating if you lose power-ups but all in all, a classic.
