In the time of war during the Sengoku period in Japan, four clans vie for control of Sakura Village from its brutal leader, Lord Ishihara.
Ninja Knights is a deck-building action-adventure game. Each player plays as a ninja from one of the competing dojos. The ninja use their decks to control all their actions and complete missions toward victory. They scramble through the random village tiles teeming with enemy samurai and guards. By building up and increasing power with items and ability cards, the ninja race to spy, rescue, and assassinate.
Sneaking and Combat is done by building up combos within the player’s hand.
The enemy actions are controlled by a cube-pull system, which keeps players on their toes. The guards and samurai are constantly moving throughout the village. A simple guard may carry the heart of a lion. While a samurai could easily become something even worse!
Purchasing the many different items from the shops and upgrades from the temple and shrine allow each ninja to focus on their own style. Plus, completed mission cards join the player’s deck for a greater bonus and more buying power.
Ninja Knights uses a streamlined A.I. Ninja that fights to complete missions herself. This evil ninja allows solo play or she can add an extra challenger in two player games.
