### 3/5 — Pleeeease Update and add Gamepad support …

*2026-04-22, version 1.5.3*

Geniales Game. Wäre noch genialer, wenn man es mit einem Game Controller spielen könnte. Mit einem PS5 Controller funktioniert das Menü einwandfrei, aber das Spielen selbst nicht. Schade.

### 3/5 — な〜い

*2024-05-18, version 1.5.3*

JOJOの一面の星がいくら探しても２つ足りないのですがなぜでしょうか

### 4/5 — Errorcillos

*2023-02-27, version 1.5.3*

En el dojo no se marcan las estrellas; termino una escena con 3 estrellas y en la pantalla de selección sólo aparecen 2. En un par de escenas no me marca el 100% de las luces amarillas (comparando con videos en línea he visto que junto todas las de la escena).

Es muy bueno el juego, sólo tiene esos detallitos. Con mando sería bastante mejor.

### 4/5 — Très bien mais manque le contrôleur

*2022-05-14, version 1.5.3*

Le jeu est vraiment génial. Manque simplement la  possibilité d’utiliser un contrôleur.

Hors c’est à mon sens indispensable pour un jeu arcade.

### 4/5 — Проблема с получением звёзд

*2021-03-03, version 1.5.3*

На некоторых уровнях не хватает очков, чтобы набрать 3 звезды. В ранних версиях такого не было, исправьте.

### 2/5 — Minor fixes?!?

*2019-11-29, version 1.5.3*

The update said 'minor fixes' - the size of the app went from 350MB up to 1.3GB....
What. Is. Up. With. That?!?!

### 4/5 — Really fun!!

*2019-06-08, version 1.5.2*

This is a great game! Its a little bit Ninja Gaiden and a little bit of its own thing! Definitely recommended for fans of platform and action games!

### 3/5 — No support for iPhone X

*2019-04-25, version 1.5.2*

Great game. Too bad it isn’t optimized for X and newer.

### 5/5 — Ninja fun | buy with confidence

*2016-12-22, version 1.5.2*

The best Ninja game on the AppStore. Controls are very smooth. This is a joyful game.   

Le meilleur jeu dans la boutique AppStore. Simple a contrôler, très plaisant. 

🙏🏼Wishing for COOP multiplayer ;)

### 5/5 — Great stuff

*2016-09-29, version 1.5.2*

It's a simple game to get the hang of but a challenge to complete if you want all the stars for each level. You can flow through the levels in an impressively looking way and it has a lovely colourful graphical style. Easy worth the price of a coffee.

### 4/5 — Continuação

*2016-07-22, version 1.5.2*

Esperando shadow blade 2 a anos

### 4/5 — A beautyfull game.

*2016-07-06, version 1.5.2*

It's really a beautyfull game. The graphics are very good. But there is one thing : there are only a few levels, so please add some more levels. And there need to be a survival level or something. But like I say, it's a very good game!

### 5/5 — Супер

*2016-06-12, version 1.5.2*

Очень красочный и динамичный платоформер! 10/5 Рекомендую.

### 5/5 — Amazing game one request

*2016-04-23, version 1.5.2*

This game is amazing and so much fun to play but once you beat all levels with three stars there's nothing to do so please add a survival mode with endless waves of enemies then the game would be complete

### 5/5 — Easily the best.

*2016-04-18, version 1.5.2*

You'll be hard pressed to find a better platform/action game or mobile. It's like the love child of Strider 2 and Shinobi 3D.

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EEEEEEVER

*2016-03-05, version 1.5.2*

Controls are COOL and the kills are AWESOME!!!!!!!!
