Ninja Blade

Pros

• Pretty generous with achievements
• SImple fighting scheme
• Crazy fight sequences
• Epic boss battles
• Very quick pace and a variety to activities

Cons

• Too many lackluster quick time events
• Very little originality
 

Bottom Line

Not an original thought in its head, but the quick pace and over-the-top battles make up for a lot.



"Ninja Blade doesn't make a good first impression: derivative story, simple combat with little depth... but as I played the game it gradually picked up steam. The battles get more and more outrageous, particularly the boss fights. The game is spruced up with lots of quick time events, which look gorgeous, but the game tends to over-rely on them. However, if you just want to take a variety of ninja weapons to slimey-looking monsters, Ninja Blade is pretty good for letting off tension. "
