Beat 1 cycle in slow mode. This game was the precursor to Demon Sword, with some of the weird mechanics. 1 button to sword slash, other to throw shuriken, up to jump incredibly high, climbing trees, and infinite swarms of jumpy shooty ninja enemies. There were power ups to improve hp and attack, and an unnecessarily long screen clearing nuke that cleared it repeatedly for several seconds. The structure of the game was more like Kung Fu, with just a few very simple short stages that repeated endlessly. There was a sort of boss at the end. Despite dying in 1 hit without the clothes upgrade, I found this game easier than both Demon Sword and Kung Fu. The worst thing was zero control while in the air, but there was nothing that needed to be jumped over so it was not really necessary. Still awkward though. I have no interest in playing through the harder repeat modes but it was a better game than Kung Fu.
5.8/10
