Shinobi: The Ninja Scroll

Shinobi: The Ninja Scroll is a refreshingly original take on a puzzle game experience with its scroll-based gameplay. The intricate design, fun ninja-themed puzzles and Japanese-inspired artwork coalesce into a work of art. Paired with the simple but effective online portal, a wonderful score and engaging videos, there is so much to love about this game. Shinobi also solves one of the biggest problems I have with some boxed puzzle experiences by making the central component a beautiful keepsake that has a function beyond the game. It’s a family-friendly adventure that is perfect for date night, game night or a solo session and would make a very welcome gift for that puzzle game lover in your life. With 2-3 hours of gameplay, an affordable price point and the ability to pass it on to someone once you’ve completed it, it feels like a no-brainer.

a beautiful game. that was their goal for this project and in more aspect than one, they hit the nail square on the head. it’s one of those games you’re encouraged to pass on, but probably want to keep it in your collection forever.
