This game combines a new IP, nice graphics and cool, but difficult gameplay like „N+" for platform fans – hoping the sequel will have nicer animations and more story details.
In spite of its occasional frustrations, Ninjamurai is one of the most compelling PSP games released this year. The fact that it's a Minis game, at that price point, just make it all the more enticing.
The old school platforming and sometimes punishing checkpoint system won't appeal to everyone, but those that grew up on the platformers of the 16-bit era will be right at home, as will anyone looking to spend a little money to see how downloadable games have matured over the years.
Overall, the game reflects its price instead of being better than it, making it a title that should be picked up by platforming fans and those hungry for a PSP game if they have some spare change lying around.
There's a slight stickiness to your character's response time that makes all of Ninjamurai's other achievements irrelevant - jumping and slashing just don't feel good. [Sept 2011, p.111]
Ninjamurai's sense of speed doesn't last long enough to get you through the waiting room at the doctor's office, nor does it compare to other offerings on the PSP Mini lineup.
If I'd bought this for the Atari ST in 1989, I'd want my money back. [Sept 2011, p.107]
