Product Description Mini Ninjas DS
Amazon.com Product Description
A single player action/adventure game, Mini Ninjas puts a new spin on the video game favorite, ninja action genre. A kid-friendly game featuring no killing and an engrossing storyline, which players explore via six playable ninja characters, players take on the role of Hiro and the fellow members of his improbable ninja clan as they face an ancient evil that has returned to impose itself on the world. Each ninja utilizes authentic ninja weapons and moves, and possesses his/her own individual skill set, including mysterious "kuji magic" abilities.  Authentic ninja weapons & moves. View larger. |  Various Kuji magic abilities. View larger. |  6 playable characters. View larger. | Story In Mini Ninjas the main character is the small ninja, Hiro. Although he has shown great promise, Hiro is the last ninja that anyone would expect to save the world, yet that is exactly what he is called to do when an evil samurai warlord hatches a plan bent on total world domination. In this plan the evil lord attempts to recapture the dominion he held prior to previously being cast out by creating an army of samurai slaves out of innocent animals. In the process of doing this he also upsets the natural balance of the the world, causing catastrophic storms. This Hiro can not stand for. Armed with authentic ninja weapons and powerful spells, Hiro must rescue the fellow ninjas of his clan who the warlord has captured and then lead them on an exciting journey to battle the magical army of twisted Samurai. Gameplay In Mini Ninjas players have their choice of six playable ninja characters, although as the game begins you will be limited to the main character, Hiro, and his comrade, the slow, but strong un-ninja like Futo. As part of the revealing of the storyline, players are tasked with searching out Hiro's fellow ninjas, who at the beginning of the game were sent out to investigate troubles in the land, but never returned. They were captured by the evil warlord. As Hiro and Futo set each of these free, they in turn become playable characters. Each of the six playable characters has unique abilities, and utilizes a variety of ninja-specific weapons, items and moves, as well as "Kuji Magic," which each--especially Hiro--can use to help them against enemies. These uses include classic mana-like blasts, but also more surprising and powerful forms such as the ability to take animal form in time of need. A New Kind of Ninja Mini Ninjas is an action adventure game with a fresh take on the ninja fascination that has long been part of video games culture. Designed to be kid-friendly, although the game utilizes realistic ninja weapons and moves, there is no actual killing. Because the evil ninjas and other enemies that players face are actually animals captured by the evil warlord, when they are defeated they revert back to their original animal forms, correcting the imbalance that the plans of the samurai warlord have caused, and ensuring game suitability for all ages of players. Key Game Features - 6 playable Mini Ninjas, each with his own unique strengths and abilities.
- Authentic ninja weapons and moves.
- Kuji magic spells that help you control animals, enemies and the powers of nature.
- Versatile ninja hats that can be used as vehicles and shields.
- Huge boss battles.
- No killing – when an enemy is defeated, it’s transformed into its original animal form.
- Beautiful, distinctive and original art-stylization.

| Customer Reviews: good game. February 23, 2010 HP 3 (Chicago, Illinois) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love it! I'ts kind of challenging. If you ask me, i'm an expert. And there is a
save option! There are different levels. I am on level 2. One o' the cool parts
is that you could turn into animals if you get very far. I would reccomend It
to someone.
Good game for the dsi xl February 12, 2010 B. L. Sears (Charleston, WV USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game is for the dsi xl. Theye should've had instructions on how to draw the Chinese symbols. The first one is easy but, after that do you have to use pin? Then you ruin your ds.
mini ninja for DS February 5, 2010 Albert H. Cload III This was a really fun game. My daughter had enjoyed this game daily since she got it.
Its actually a great game!! December 15, 2009 Sleepy (NJ) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Ok.. So i saw another review stating that this game was horrible, however i bought it before any reviews were posted and i love it. I bought my DS about 3 weeks ago and this game is the one i play the most. As for the graphics, they are great for a system like DS. It can be a little challenging sometimes trying to figure out where you need to go, but i have never had any problems with the maps. Maybe this game doesn't appeal to a younger audience; I am 26 and can't get enough of it. I'm actually going to go out tomorrow and buy the Xbox 360 version. Either way take my review for what its worth. I think that if you try it you won't be disappointed.
Horrible September 12, 2009 S. Lituchy (London, UK) 24 out of 39 found this review helpful
First let me just say that I cannot STAND this game.
For the first 5-10 minutes of the game, the master is just babbling about useless information. Then, once you actally get a CHANCE to play, the view and controls are terrible! I was so confused, but after a while, I understood it.
As my 3rd task, I had to find an amulet or something. It said to use the map, so I did. The map could not find me, and when it could, my symbol would stay in one place, but my actual character would be moving.
Not only is the gameplay bad, but the graphics are outrageous. Its like they took Sims, made them uglier and gave them weirder-shaped heads.
This has to be the most frustrating game I've ever played. Do not waste your money.
