Play Revenge of the Shinobi Online

Revenge of the Shinobi came out for the Sega Genesis in 1989, developed and published by Sega. It was one of the early action games on the system, arriving at a time when players were hungry for fast, challenging titles that showed off the hardware's capabilities.

You control ninja Joe Musashi, moving screen by screen through urban and natural environments to rescue your kidnapped student. You attack with a mix of shurikens and a short range sword slash, and you also have a limited supply of powerful ninja magic for clearing the screen or damaging bosses. The pacing is relentless, with enemies attacking from all sides and environmental hazards demanding precise jumps. Finishing a stage without losing a life gives a real sense of accomplishment.
