Description
The ancient samurai-warlord is back and has already begun raising a new demonic army to subdue the world. But instead of hiring unreliable minions, the warlord transforms innocent animals into fearsome warriors giving the word "recycling" a whole new meaning. Trying to put an end to his slaughter are Hiro, a young ninja and his five ninja-friends.
Hiro is one of the few ninjas that has the ability to use Kuji-Spells. Unlocked by finding and praying at hidden shrines, they not only allow Hiro to throw fireballs or slow down time. Some are useful in a more passive way. The most important is the spell that allows Hiro to gain control over any of the animals roaming around the levels. This not only gives him access to the abilities of that particular animal. In animal form collectible objects like statues, flowers and such are also specially marked to make them easier to be found. If no animal is nearby, simply slaying an enemy will do as the samurais will transform back to their initial form once killed. Also hidden in the levels are coins with which the player can buy additional items such as throwing stars or potions. The latter he can also make himself by collecting plants and finding/buying recipes.
At the start of the game only Futo, a big guy with a hammer, is traveling with Hiro. During the course of the game the player frees the other four ninjas:
- Suzume is a young girl with a flute that incapacitates enemies when played.
- Shun is a master with the bow.
- Tora who thinks he's a tiger and has big metal claws to proof it.
- Kunoichi is an acrobat with a long spear
But only one of them can be controlled by the player from a 3rd-person-perspective at the same time. The others are stored in a menu and wait till they the player needs someone else for a task.
