    I-Ninja really stands out it has great graphics for a Namco production and takes a long time to beat the game.

    A formulaic, but wildly fun platformer for all ages. Pros: Engaging main character; lots of fun level design, gameplay elements, and secrets; solid controls; fantastic visuals. Cons: Formulaic; repetitious; too short, too shallow.

    Despite the frustrating challenges and missions, I-Ninja is still an Incredibly fun platformer. The game contains a simple (but appealing) visual direction, solid controls, a catchy soundtrack and a great sense of humour, especially when Billy West voices as the main protagonist in this game. The story and boss fights were pretty forgettable, but somehow the nostalgic atmosphere of the game becomes easily playable. If you are looking for a 3D platformer with a lot of collecting and tough challenges, then I-Ninja is right up your turf. Too bad this is the only game from the I-Ninja franchise, which never got a sequel after the game's release.… Collapse

    It's a platformer where you can kick back relax and have fun! :)

    I-Ninja takes the stereotypes typically used around ninja characters, and exploits them into quite a humorous and enjoyable game.

    Overall, Gameplay is excellent, yet at many times, it can get tough.

    The schizophrenia works, but just barely, because the game does nothing particularly brilliantly. [Jan 2004, p.72]
