Game Play

Each player chooses from a selection of three different ninjas. Each character has his own specific style of attack and a special "ninja trick" super power. Power-ups are released from boxes and other storage units along the way. The action scrolls vertically, progressing towards the inevitable battle against a super-powered historical figure e.g. a dinosaur, a medieval samurai, an Egyptian pharaoh, et. al..
