Play Kaiketsu Yanchamaru 3 - Taiketsu! Zouringen (Japan) Online
You bounce around with a bo staff like a hyperactive ninja, pogo-jumping off enemies and walls with weirdly satisfying physics. It’s one of those NES games where movement feels janky at first, then suddenly clicks into pure flow.

Kaiketsu Yanchamaru 3 is one of those NES platformers that feels simple at first—until you realize how weirdly fun the movement is. You play as this kid with a bo staff, and instead of just whacking enemies, you can use it to bounce off walls like some kind of tiny, acrobatic samurai. The pogo-stick jump is the real star though—once you get the timing down, you’re just bopping up and down on enemies’ heads like it’s nobody’s business.
It’s got that classic NES challenge, too—some jumps feel impossible until you figure out the exact angle to ricochet off a wall. The whole thing has this goofy energy, like someone took a standard action game and said, “What if the main character was just really into pole vaulting?” If you like old-school platformers with a twist, this one’s a hidden gem.
