### 4/5 — One thing.

*2021-03-19, version 1.13*

This is one of my favorite iOS games ever. Just one thing - I can’t play it on my phone since the app does not support iOS 11. Would be 5 stars if the app was supported on the later version of iOS.

### 4/5 — Update

*2020-12-14, version 1.13*

Update your firm ware so I can play again on the new iPhone systems

### 5/5 — When is the game coming back

*2019-07-04, version 1.13*

This game was fun as a kid and as a grown up I would love to play it again please update it to the new phones

### 5/5 — IOS 11

*2018-03-17, version 1.13*

It needs to be updated so that people can play it in IOS 11

### 5/5 — He said 50,000

*2017-05-25, version 1.13*

What happens if u kill 50,000 thousand samurai like what the guy said in the intro???

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2016-06-30, version 1.13*

I like the game for what it is, it's a nice way to pass time. My only vex is that the intros conversation is whited out, and when you die it'll sometimes keep going, but with no way to stop it without closing the game, meaning you don't get your points at the end. Please fix these minor bugs.

### 5/5 — I love this game

What the title says

### 4/5 — EXPLOIT ALL DA GLITCHES!!!!

*2015-02-10, version 1.13*

I exploited the infinite Level 2 glitch and I got NP like crazy, it's beautiful.

### 4/5 — This dumb thin'

*2015-01-30, version 1.13*

Replace running with avatar

### 4/5 — GoNinja

*2014-12-09, version 1.13*

The game itself is awesome. Ninja running around slicing-and-dicing.

The concept is pretty cool. It wasn't necessarily impressive, but it's interesting enough to bring an individual into the game.

Gameplay is where there are some flaws. It seems like more than half the time I try to swipe down to leave a roof, the ninja simply jumps. A bug that I have experienced and others are reporting is the retry screen not always appearing upon death. Finally, I have been having a problem with the Missions and Upgrades menus not closing when I tap the "X" in the corner.

Aside from the retry screen and the loss of progress associated with it, there aren't any major problems with the game, so it gets a four out of five. Fix the retry screen, and GoNinja would easliy be a five out of five.

### 3/5 — GLITCHY

*2014-09-27, version 1.13*

This game is as glitchy as any game can get, I constantly have to restart the app because my character has floated off into space. That being said it also adds a certain aspect of humor to the game. You hit the fireball ability and then it never stops, you jump too high and you never stop. I love this game but be prepare for some bugs.

### 5/5 — Very very...

*2014-09-22, version 1.13*

Good game! Reminds me of a 2D ninja gaiden.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2014-09-06, version 1.13*

This game is really fun and fills In your time if your bored and I love the upgrades hope you make future games like this!
