Practice makes perfect. Once you've killed the fat sumo wrestler at the end of the first stage, you'll be totally hooked. Read Review

As a conversion of the arcade machine, Shadow Warriors is really outstanding and will give all Ninja fans a real challenge. Read Review

Colourful Ninja action. A bit messy but high on playability. Read Review

1st July 1992
Despite a few nice touches, it's all incredibly repetitive, pretty confusing and definitely uninspired stuff. Read Review

Technically astounding beat-'em-up, full of colour and action... but doesn't need too much skill. Read Review
Full Instructions
Scenario
Handed down since the turmoil of Medieval warring States are five secret Ninjitsu techniques known only to the Shadow Warriors. In the concrete jungle of an American metropolis, chaos has broken loos, an Oriental demon has possessed the strength of the greatest Warrior and has summoned forth a squad of ghoulish assassins who must be stopped.
This duty falls to you, the last in a line of legendary combatants and the only saviour of a threatened city... Shadow Warrior, the hero of the '90s.
Gameplay
The player progresses through each level and meets various enemies along the way.
The Ninja in this game has perfected the techniques of the Triple Blow Combination, The Flying Neck Throw, the Hang Kick, the Phoenix Backflip and the Tightrope technique.
As he cuts a swathe through each zone, items appear from within trash cans, signs and telephone booths.
His mission is to fight his way through six of the toughest neighbourhoods in America as he collects these items and destroys the assassination squads on his way to the final conflict with the evil Demon.
