Kunoichi Sekiren

Kunoichi Sekiren is a female ninja themed 2D scroller. Set in feudal Japan, players control different Kunoichi as they go about their secret missions to help keep Japan safe. The main story is about a Kunoichi whose family was murdered, as she seeks justice for them. As the story progresses, players become more invested in her and the secret, dark world she uncovers.

Next Level Sprite Work

It’s not always easy to produce pixelated artwork that makes people say, “Wow!” Yet Kunoichi Sekiren manages to do that with some of the most beautiful sprite work in the gaming world. The sprites are all exquisitely animated, with beautiful ninjas who know how to make an entrance.

Artwork is very sexy, featuring busty women and provocative clothing, but is closer to ecchi than hentai. Players are able to customize the appearance of their character, adding to the experience of the game. The rest of the artwork is also beautifully made, with detailed backgrounds and a bright and cheerful color scheme.

Artwork hasn’t been this good since Vivi and the Magic Island, so take time to savor this beautiful world while you are playing.

Appropriate Music and Sound

Matching the beautiful artwork is appropriate music and sounds for feudal Japan. This includes Japanese themed background music, and weapon sounds appropriate for clashing katanas or a mace smashing down onto something.

These small details really add to the game. It’s very common for games to simply recycle the same 5 sounds for the entire game but Kunoichi Sekiren separates itself once again with a pleasant backdrop of sound.

Well Developed Combat System

It’s not just the artwork that is enjoyable in the game. Combat is fast and furious in the game, while also being intuitive for experienced players. The game offers a skill tree that lets players decide how their Kunoichi will fight, as well as choosing a weapon style.

Players can customize their fighting experience and grow in power by skilling up their favorite stat. The result is a unique experience each playthrough.

Variety of Missions

It’s not all clashing swords with the enemy. The game also has a number of side missions that require stealth, or other gaming styles to get through them. This variety of missions helps break up the game and keep it from feeling too boring.

Challenging Boss Fights

You will need that skill tree progress to get through the boss fights in the game. The bosses are powerful, unique, and won’t go down without a fight. Players will need skill to bring down the bosses and defeat the game.

Rating: 10/10
