This game is the best the PS3 has to offer to the pre-teen age group, bar-none. But surprisingly, even in my 20's I find this game very addictive and fun. Mini Ninjas is a refreshingly simple yet fun action/adventure game that leads you to beautiful landscapes and intriguing possibilities.
You take control of 6 ninjas in all, but the main one, Hiro, is who you will be using predominantly. There is a lot of criticism that the other ninjas are useless or at least close to, but I've found that nearly every ninja serves a purpose. Besides the main one, there is one who specializes taking out the bigger enemies, one who uses a surprisingly useful bow as a weapon, and one or two others have a trophy linked to them, so that makes using them more appealing. The first two I mentioned along with Hiro are the ones I use predominantly, but each has their own style. Still, Hiro is the only one who can cast magic which makes him much more useful than the rest.
The game takes you on a marvelous journey from expansive forests to dark graveyards to icy peaks and even a variety of looming castles where enemy bosses lay in wait. The bosses are quite humorous typically, and the crazy rants of the average enemy make this game very entertaining along the way. There are many ways to get past certain situations, so it just depends on your playing style. A word of warning to hardcore gamers, however: since this is a game aimed at a younger audience, the difficulty isn't exactly high by any means. I'm about through the game my first time on hard, and I've only died maybe 3 or 4 times at most.
So if you want a game that's fun for anyone in the family, or you just happen to like ninjas, then pick up this game. This was somewhat of an impulse buy for me, but I was happy I listened to that little voice in my head instead of the reviews online. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.Get more detail about Mini Ninjas.
