Lovers of oriental artistry, pay attention, as this superbly put together offering is now available on the cheap side.

The mission, as before, is to battle your way through four levels of gruesome adversaries, rescue the President of the USA and fly him to safety, before the villains can do the dirty on him.

Utilising some excellent graphics and very atmospheric sound effects, you start off with the usual martial arts skills of punching, kicking and jumping.

A little mastering of the controls will also afford a very handy flying kick and a power punch, enabling you to knock down more than one enemy at a time.

As you progress, look out for the evil shuriken throwing Ninja Assassins. There are also some pretty nifty Women Warriors and guard dogs to deal with, before you come face to face with the end of level bad guys.

These consist of a firebreathing Fat Man, an armour clad giant and the Green and Gruesome Giant Ninja, who has a terrible habit of multiplying himself, much to your chagrin.

Each of these guardians can only be dealt with by multiple blows, so be prepared for a struggle.

To help you out a little, keep your eyes peeled for extra weapons in your path and, be sure to pick up the capsules offering extra time and energy, or you'll be hard put to complete each level in time.

All in all, a top notch conversion that'll totally hook Ninja fans, as well as lovers of a good old beat-'em-up. Well worth getting hold of on the budget label.
