Description
US VERSION

Another of the launch titles for the Neo Geo, this is a Double Dragon-style beat 'em up for 1 or 2 players that shows that while the system had graphics capabilities in spades, gameplay had a long way to go. There is a charge mechanic for unleashing ninja magic but at its core it's still a quarter gobbler through and through, with cheap deaths galore. The one unique element is that at the end of each level, the players will defeat a boss who can then become a playable character; this was used in later titles such as Double Dragon III and Sengoku 3.

The back of the box boasts "NINJA COMBAT is formed through battle."
