Gorgeous ninja action

Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master is a really cool action/platformer that manages to be extremely fun with the tight controls, pretty graphics and cool looking stages.

Despite not being fond of platformers, there's a lot I like about this game. The stages themselves are surprisingly varied for a ninja action/platformer to the point it feels like a wacky ninja action movie in a good way. The music here is also pretty good especially Stage 6 here and the graphics hold it pretty well for a Genesis game.

Only minor grievances I would have is the limited continues and a specific part of the final stage but the game it self is short at 2 hours so it wouldn't be too hard to get back on track.

Nonetheless, this game is legit cool for its genre. It's 99 cents on Steam right now if you want a legit copy. Worth every cent honestly.
