Ninja Five-0

STORY / GAMEPLAY
A ninja cop named Joe Osugi battles a group of evil ninja masters and all terrorist cells under their commands. The time has come to put your skills to the test when an evil terrorist group gets a hold of an ancient evil power known as the Mad Masks. These artifacts, always guarded by ninja clans for countless centuries, hold great magic, granting whoever wears them unimaginable power. It's Joe's job to rescue innocent people taken hostage by this group and defeat the multiple leaders who are using the Mad Masks for their own wicked advantage. The game features ninja swords, unlimited shurikens, ninjutsu magic and a kaginawa grappling hook system to perform acrobatic moves (it's probably the most important item in your inventory) in the style of Bionic Commando.

GRAPHICS / SOUND
The game features plenty of thumping beats! The game's sound is excellent with great music and a few impressive sound effects like screams, explosions and more). The graphics look good, with small sprites but of flawless animation (with lots of frames) and very nicely drawn backgrounds but it does not tax the GBA's hardware. Ninja Five-0 is a standard side scrolling action platform game with no actual special effects to wow jaded gamers.
