Shadow Ninja Revenge
More games to play
Shadow Ninja Revenge is a free action-platformer you play in the browser. You are a ninja chasing a man named Takeda, who kidnapped your son, fighting through his guards across guarded, trap-filled stages. It runs unblocked at school or work wherever browser games are allowed, with nothing to download. You throw shuriken, use a sword and a disguise, and search each level for the scroll that opens the way out.
About Shadow Ninja Revenge
It is a side-scrolling ninja platformer with light stealth. You run, jump, and climb through enemy-held levels, drop guards with thrown shuriken or your sword, and avoid the traps in each stage. As you clear levels you collect loot and skill points, then spend them to grow your moveset for the tougher fights ahead. A tutorial introduces each special ability before you need it.
How to control the ninja
Movement is one hand, combat skills the other, and each skill sits on a single key for quick swaps.
| Action | Key |
|---|---|
| Jump | W or up arrow |
| Move left | A or left arrow |
| Move right | D or right arrow |
| Throw shuriken | J |
| Sword skill | K |
| Disguise skill | L |
Scrolls, gates, and traps
Levels do not end at the right edge. Each stage hides a portal scroll, and finding it opens the torii gate to the next stage, so every level is part search and part fight.
| Element | What it does |
|---|---|
| Portal scroll | Hidden item that opens the gate |
| Torii gate | Exit to the next stage |
| Traps | Level hazards that kill on contact |
Upgrades and skill tree
You spend what you collect on upgrades and improve your abilities through an extensive skill tree. That is how the basic shuriken and jump turn into a kit that can handle later guards and trap layouts. Put points into whatever is killing you most.
The night setting and the hunt for Takeda give each stage a reason beyond clearing rooms. Because the exit is locked behind a hidden scroll, a level is a small puzzle on top of the fight, and a stage that beats you once is usually winnable after a few upgrades.
Tips
A few things that help on the harder stages:
- Learn each trap pattern before you jump.
- Use shuriken to drop ranged guards before they close in.
- Use the disguise to skip crowded rooms.
- Search the whole level for the scroll, since the exit stays locked without it.
