How It Begins

You’re a lone ninja whose mission is to steal a rare golden idol from a rival Shinto shrine. You must do this while being pursued by an evil ninja, who seeks to capture you and prevent you from succeeding in your mission.

Trivia and Comments

• The only obvious difference between the 2004 and 2005 versions is the addition of a small puzzle involving a dragon.
• This is the only game ever to be entered twice in The Annual IF Competition. Although this breaks the rule about entering a previously-released game, it seems that nobody much cared, possibly because it placed last in both the years it was entered.
