Game Description

2D Version

Amongst of all ninja, there are only followers, and then there are masters. The Ninja Master follows the path of the ninja with virtue and devotion, finding sincere meaning and solace within the arts of ninjutsu, and leading the way for the next generation of ninja to follow. Dedicated to the end and with the art of war as arcane and storied with their experiences in battle, Ninja Masters know well of tactics, strategy, and the science of chaos and trickery, reinforced with a foothold built upon turning to focusing on mastering the basics and reinforcing the foundations to their ultimate limit. Because of this intense adherence to training, the Ninja Master is able to utilize even the most basic ninjutsu in the most devastating ways, wields blades with such proficiency that makes their attacks seem like a storm of blows, and has mastered the art of stealth to where it is if the darkness is an extension of their abode, allowing them to traverse both the rigid precipices of tight tension and the chaotic battlefield, to fight onward tactfully to victory. Though the art of the ninja is that of deception and subterfuge, only Ninja Masters are honored as the strongest of ninja and follow their own path of rectitude that is forged by their own fists.

3D Version

As the name suggests, Ninja Masters have advanced ninja moves. They can cause damage in an area to turn the tide of battle.
