• Ninja Mechanics Overhaul
  Forget Alex's usual fists. Your primary weapons are throwing knives, called Kunai in some versions, and powerful ninjutsu spells you gather for special screen-clearing attacks.
• Intense 8-Bit Challenge
  The scrolling stage progression moves briskly. You'll face instant death traps like collapsing floors in Cave Chaos while dodging relentless shimobe ninjas – demanding reflexes worthy of a shinobi.
• Signature Platform Quirks
  True to its Alex Kidd heritage, you'll still encounter classic Rock-Paper-Scissors mini-games, but this time against ninja sensei Master Karamitsu. Memorizing the simple pattern remains key to progressing.
