Shinobi: Dated yet charming
Judgeman03
80% score
Shinobi is like that geeky friend you had when you were in middle school: Clumsy, annoying, but still likeable. The problem with the game is it's unnecesarily complicated. The levels are long and have no checkpoints, which is bad because there are some levels where there is no health at all. The control layout is simple because ther are only three buttons you will always use, however they are mapped out on buttons that they are not usually on. Plus their "lock on" feature is weak. But for all of it's problems, Shinobi is still a great hack and slash game.
