  • Summary: Hordes of snapping cup cakes, angry bees and jelly monsters have taken over this once sweet and tasty land. Only one man can stop this evil army of monster cakes. He’s one tough cookie, a guy that won’t crumble under the pressure... Ninjabread Man is here! [Cnospiracy]

  1. Very basic platform game with a promising lead character. Not actually awful but it's overpriced at 20 pounds and a little frustrating for younger players. [Christmas 2007, p.65]
  2. Of the worst games you could ever have the misfortune of playing.
  3. 15
    It’s buggy, oftentimes completely broken, somehow manages to have frame issues in tiny levels, and is completely ruthless if (and when) younger players die.
  4. Ninjabread Man lasted half an hour. HALF AN HOUR. Three levels down and I was booted straight back to the main menu without fanfare. I thought I'd pressed the Quit button by mistake... Half an hour and one hundred percent done.

    I am seven and thought this would be a great game. i am so sad I got it. It made me sad for a few days. It played really badly. The weapons didn't work and the controls didn't work, it was ugly. It's hard for a seven year old to get money for games. They should try harder to make better games for kids. Expand
  2. Ninjabread man is an action adventure platformer developed by data design intereactive, and published,by conspiracy entertainment, and man is this game a conspiracy, i played the game at my cousins and the first five seconds i started to notice problems. The controls are broken, the graphics and sound suck, the mission structure is repetitive and the checkpoint system is simply broken. The game also has no voice acting, no interesting story, levels all play the same, weapons never work, killing enemies takes like a billion hits, there's only 3 levels(excluding the tutorial mission), and the game is filled with so many glitches, framerate issues, and a bad camera angle that it's basically unplayable.

  3. Anything need to be said? Okay. This game proves that Data Design Interactive are the equivalent to those jokes you get in emails that take half an hour to download and are never funny. Expand
  4. This game is a deep and heart-filling masterpiece filled with mind-blowing plot twists and amazing set-pieces. I could sit here for hours - Nintendo have made the game of the centu- Wait, what? Ninjabread Man? Oops, wrong game. Expand
