ジャジャ丸忍

The Ninjutsu combat feels smooth and responsive, and the enemy waves keep you on your toes even after several runs. Getting to unwind at the inn after a chaotic fight gives the game a nice, rewarding rhythm.

The inn-stay reward mechanic is such a clever way to break up the action, and the ninjutsu techniques add a nice layer of strategy to the combat.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed the ninjutsu mechanics, they add a strategic layer that keeps the action from feeling repetitive. The mix of combat and relaxing at the inn is such a unique balance, it really sets this cart apart from other Famicom titles.
