About

Daruma Ninja

Features
Read full description

Fight against ninja warriors and demons, join martial arts tournaments and explore a fantastic imaginary Japanese world: cherry blossoms, bamboo forests, traditional ryokans, waterfalls and fights in the snow. You as a young ninja arrive in a village; a secret power has been sealed in you and the Panda master will teach you how to use it. Daruma Ninja has RPG and classic fighting elements. The visuals will impress you: thousands of particles, HDR lights, volumetric fog and a stunning 60FPS mode...Daruma Ninja is not only advanced graphics, the story is fun and ironic and the characters have a unique personality (voice over was made by professional Japanese actors). Master the noble art of casting shurikens for long distance attacks or execute fatal short range attacks with your katana. For a better experience it is possible to change the FPS settings and quality level in the settings screen! *** The game is 100% offline, with no advertisement or in app purchases ***
