Template:Nihongo foot is a 1984 platform video game developed and published by UPL for arcades. It was later ported to the Famicom and MSX in 1984.[1] The MSX version was the only version released outside of Japan, as it was released in Europe under the name "Ninja".[2]
Gameplay
Ninja-kun's Demon Castle Adventure features three upward scrolling levels that repeat and become more difficult.[1] The objective is to defeat the enemies on each screen and advance to the next screen. The player can attack with shurikens and jump on enemies' heads to stun them. Occasionally, an orb will appear and if the player collects three, a bonus level will be unlocked.
Reception
In Japan, Game Machine listed Ninja-Kid on their November 15, 1984 issue as being the second most-successful table arcade unit of the month.[3]
Legacy
After Jaleco had ported the game and its sequel to the Famicom and MSX in Japan, the company created Ninja-kun's younger brother, Ninja JaJaMaru-kun and created their own series titled Ninja JaJaMaru-kun.[1] The Ninja JaJaMaru-kun series would feature several games released on various consoles and handhelds, many of the games are different genres like role-playing video game gameplay.
Ninja-kun: Adventure of Devil Castle was released for the PlayStation 4 in May 2014 and Nintendo Switch in April 2018 by Hamster Corporation under their Arcade Archives series by the name of Ninja-kid.[4]
