The original
Shinobi is a pretty straightforward arcade affair, putting you in the shoes of ace ninja Joe Musashi (who, lacking a cool mask, looks like a bit of a dweeb). The goal of each level is to find all of the kidnapped children and escape, although they're never hidden and finding them is pretty easy. The basic gameplay borrows heavily from Namco's
Rolling Thunder games, mixing strategic gameplay with fast action. Like
Rolling Thunder, you can jump between planes by holding up or down and hitting jump. You can leap between rooftops, or behind fences, in dual plane level designs that were pretty unique for the time.
