Fun:
Mini ninjas is alot of fun & as the title of this review says,its tenchu lite. The game seems to be aimed towards the younger market but im 37 and this tickled my inner child (not in a way that can get someone arrested mind.) The graphics are lovely to look at,in fact,if Pixar were to make a ninja game,this would probably be it! One of the fun things you can do in this game is you can take control of any animal,whether its a rabbit or a fox or a bear or dog,and later in the game you can take control of any of the bad guys. Hiding in tall grass makes you invisible and using magic can get you to hide in a bush a la metal gear solid's cardboard box.Sadly though,you can very easily just slash your way through the baddies without having to use any of these things which's a real shame,and thats why im only giving this game 4 stars.The developers could've made it where you had to use these abilities to complete a level. But saying that,the game is still alot of fun,with lots of magic spells to find to having a hat that you can sit in while you fish,theres also a level where you use your hat to escape an avalanche! And to be honest,i actually enjoyed this game more than 'WET' that's just been released! So on a whole,if you want a game thats lovely to look at and fun to play for that inner child then look no further and take a chance with Mini ninjas!

Fun:
Now I know it says 7+ on the box but at 28 I had a great time! Playing as Hiro the last remaining ninja sent to discover the truth behind what is happening in the land by Ninja Master, it is your job to rescue you fellow Ninja friends and defeat the Evil Samurai Warlord. For what is marketed as a childs game the story is actually very well told and the game play is quite tactical.
As Hiro you have various spells which you can cast to defeat your enemies, which breaks up the battles from being purely sword based. Also as you progress through the game new characters unlock and you can play as them for more variety; for example, Futo who carries a giant hammer is the only character who can defeat the large Samurai.
The levels are more free roam than I expected, although all paths will lead to the same place there are hidden shrines and temples to find along the way. It's also nice to be able to go all the way back to the start of a level if you miss something. I found the graphics beautiful, with stunning backgrounds and cute characters.
From a gaming point of view there is little challenge, you can easily achieve 1000G with one playthrough (I would recommend using a guide though for all the collectibles). You could probably complete this within 8 hours, personally I preferred to play it a couple of levels at a time as a break from other games I was playing.
I highly recommend this title for players of all ages, if you're unsure try the free demo on XBL it's a a good representation of the game.

Fun:
The experienced gamer will most likely complete this game quickly, however it was a fun little game which I did enjoy playing. It's not a game I would pick up and play through again however, I think whilst it's amusing and has its little quirks, it's not enough to have me play it a second time. The game also doesn't feature any multiplayer or xbox live options, meaning this game's probably better for renting (as I did), or buying cheap and trading it in again.
Fighting enemies can become a bit boring if all you use is your sword, however each kill can be strangely satisfying. There is however a selection of spells you can cast instead, sending powerful fire bolts or shock bolts to kill your enemies, or you can even more bombs to throw at them, adding a bit of variety to your kills. Most enemies love to engage in fights however I do notice some of them tend to try and run away once they realise it's a fight they can't win.... but they don't make it far from Hiro!
The levels aren't too challenging and quite linear, however there is often space to run off and explore, which is often recommended as you will find various shrines Hiro needs to find to gain new spells. However this isn't too difficult as Hiro has a spell he can cast where small glowing butterflies will lead the way to the nearest shrine, and if you are close then glowing fireflies also show you're near a shrine.
The graphics are actually quite good and though it's a cartoony game, I was quite impressed with various parts of the game. Some of the environment starts to look very similar in places which can get a bit boring, but the game moves along quick enough as it's not an overly challenging game.
