The ninja is a clandestine warrior that is all about blending in with their surroundings to get close to their target like in Ninja - Bamboo Assassin. You are a ninja that is taking on missions in rural areas where the bamboo is plentiful and the roads are open. Though you are a trained warrior, you can't take on a whole army by yourself. You need to pick your moments and decide the best time to strike so that you can make your way deep into enemy territory. By doing this, you can hope to bring honor and wealth to your clan.

About Ninja - Bamboo Assassin

So many ninjas have appeared in games and have done whatever they need to do to complete their missions. In this game, the ninja will need to take a long path through nature to stay hidden and strike hard. The ninja is skilled but vulnerable and all it takes is one mistake for an enemy to catch the ninja with a lethal blow. It's all about staying undetected so that the enemy never knows about your presence. The less they know, the more you can catch them off-guard, and that way you can eliminate them quickly before they even realize what's going on.

How to Play

Ninja - Bamboo Assassin is a 3D top-down stealth game about a ninja slicing his way through enemies using the mouse or keyboard. Holding down the Left Mouse Button and moving the cursor allows you to move the ninja with an onscreen analog control.

Controls

W/Up Arrow - Move Forward
S/Down Arrow - Move Backward
A/Left Arrow - Move Left
D/Right Arrow - Move Right

The goal is to eliminate all the enemies and get the ninja safely to the exit. The ninja's health bar will appear above his head when he takes damage and if it empties, you'll have to retry the level. The coins and bamboo you collect will appear in the top left corner.

The main menu gives you options to collect daily rewards or to buy new weapons for the ninja using coins collected from chests and enemies. When the level begins, the ninja will spawn at the start of the path. Along the path will be enemies with clear fields of vision and should the ninja walk into them, the enemies will be alerted and attack them. However, by approaching the enemies from behind, the ninja can safely dispatch them once in range. He can also use his sword to cut through bamboo which can be used to build certain structures. Once the enemies are defeated, the ninja can complete the level and leave through the exit at the end.

There will also be objects for the ninja to interact with that will have different effects. Fireworks can be lit as a distraction, barrels can be exploded by knocking enemies into them, and chests can be opened for coins. You have the chance to buy bonuses and upgrades at the start of each level for an extra boost.

Tips and Tricks

This ninja is slow-paced which lets you make your way deliberately through the bamboo and approach enemies with precision. You should be most cautious when enemies' fields of vision overlap, so approach the one least guarded. If you do alert a guard, then quickly get into the bamboo for cover.
