Onore no Shinzuru (Neu)

I was stuck on a late level for an hour until I realized I could split my ninja team to hold switches and fight enemies simultaneously. The multitasking required is genuinely challenging and keeps things fresh. Definitely scratched my puzzle itch.

The puzzle gets properly devious once you’re juggling three ninjas at once, and the switch-and-lantern mechanics force some real planning. I lost track of time on the harder stages, and the satisfaction of finally clearing one is worth the frustration.

I’ve been playing for a couple of days and the way you have to juggle keeping switches pressed while managing your ninjas really ramps up the tension. The puzzle designs are clever enough that I keep coming back for one more try.
