Beetle Ninja by Prosciuttoman aka 16bitking


Beetle Ninja is the story of an early-twenties ninja for hire, Montrell Saint Luc, the Beetle Ninja. After accidentally unleashing a cataclysmic entity which is set to destroy the world in two weeks, Beetle Ninja must work to prevent the realization of the incoming cataclysm. Partner with a slew of different ninjas, and defeat hordes of devious monsters as you work against the clock to stop the end of the world. 


Beetle Ninja is an adventure with rpg elements and a time limit: the protagonist has few days to prevent the end of the world and the actions that our hero will choose will be really important: train, get new allies, perform various missions or tasks, and so on. Every activity takes time and will let Beetle Ninja earn something that will help, anyway time is scarce so there won't be enough time to do everything. The first thing to do is looking for allies, and all these are ninjas. However some will be harder to get and someone may also betray you, so pay attention. This game includes various battles against weird opponents and custom graphics, plus more than one possible ending.

 
 
Random Fact: a sequel was planned but later cancelled: Beetle Ninja 2 plot was about Mikhail Layka, "the Whip Scorpion". The eighty sixth pupil of a facility called "the Dojo", the Scorpion's journey begins when he's contacted anonymously via mail with a special mission: stopping an Armageddon: a war of untold proportions with the power to decimate civilization.
 
 
Final Verdict: a fantastic game with a unique visual style. While it may seem cartoonish, the game includes mystery and violence. Mapping is really fantastic, anyway the game isn't really very long but it's not a problem considering the replayability, I guess.
