THE AIM OF THE GAME
He walks alone: NINJA in the land of the
death. His timeless quest: to rescue the
Princess Di-Di, pearl of the Orient, who
is a prisoner in the Palace of Pearls.
And he must gather idols she has dropped
to prove his worth.
As well as fists of thunder and feet of
iron NINJA is granted weapons:
a slashing Samurai sword, spinning death
stars and a throwing dagger. But these
weapons are also given to his fierce
evil Ninja opponents who guard the
doorways and the idols.
As he rises through the levels his
opponents multiply, his strength drains
but his resolution grows.
