Mini Ninjas

Mini Ninjas brings to the screen a group of small warriors, but not the kind we are used to seeing: sent into combat as a last hope, these ninjas have more then just a few tricks up their sleeve. Magic and a diverse range of skills will be available to you to try and bring down evil and restore peace to their lands. The game from Eidos is aimed at the general public, with the results being good, and very relaxing. This is a breath of fresh air, providing you with an atmosphere that is very "Zen".

Providing a video game with this name isn’t without risk. After having tested MySims Agents, we will now look at another world that contains miniature characters. Will Mini Ninjas be a children’s game, or for a young public? Or will this instead call upon bloody and well rehearsed techniques in the same way as what we have seen in other Ninja games like Ninja Gaiden Sigma, for example? Those who have already seen the video clips would already know that Mini Ninjas has no violent aspects in it. It is rather calm and friendly, even if you do have to hit some people at times, although no blood will be seen; of this you can be certain. We therefore come to the conclusion that this game is addressed at a rather young audience. While it is sure that younger players take pleasure in it, more experienced gamers will also enjoy making their way through this rather Zen and relaxing universe.

Mini Ninjas will take you on the adventures of a group of medieval Japanese warriors. In terms of atmosphere, everything is present: trees in flower with petals that are taken by the wind, bamboo forests, different habitations, costumes from this era, and especially a very "Japanese" sound. The sounds are characteristic of this Japanese universe which will accompany you throughout the adventure, which provides you with a relaxed atmosphere. Here you take control of the young ninja’s, with their mission being to take down an evil sorcerer who transforms animals into nasty warriors. Nasty, but nevertheless stupid. You will continually find yourself smiling as you hear them scream "Ninjaaaaaaaaa", and then find yourself protecting yourself from the enemy’s attacks. You should note that you will leave no bodies along your way, as beating the enemy will save the animals. Hitting the bad guys is actually in the end doing a good deed.
