Expertly crafted 2D action blending retro arcade with modern Metroidvania design. Kicks ass.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is a fantastic action platformer with sprawling levels, rewarding secrets and excellent boss fights. Beautiful visuals and responsive controls shine despite occasional Switch frame pacing issues and stutters.

Our analysis
Shinobi: Art of Vengeance revitalizes the series with striking hand-drawn visuals, fluid platforming, and deep, satisfying combat. Its story lacks compelling characters, but the varied stages and rewarding progression make it a thrilling triumph.

Our analysis
A modernized reboot that successfully turns the classic Shinobi series into a MetroidVania with excellent combat, smooth controls, and gorgeous environments, though marred by excessive platforming padding and some forgettable music.

Our analysis
While the game features excellent combat mechanics and smooth controls that rank among the best ninja titles, the level design is disappointing with overly large stages that feel padded and tedious platforming challenges that detract from the experience.
