Its take on combat is refreshing, albeit requiring some mental burdens in relearning PvP that requires solely utilizing the environment to smoosh an enemy into smithereens. While I might have some reservations over how its cast of characters are implemented in-game, the UI, and its future content, one thing is clear: Ninza is quite the fun and addicting platform battler.

    • “This game offers really interesting mechanics and is easy to play but hard to master, making it perfect for playing with friends.”
    • “Ninza is a dead and failed attempt to create a kind of 2D platformer brawler with Sokoban-like mechanics that nobody wanted.”

    • “You might see the simple gameplay and think that's what this comes down to, that you can just mash into blocks over and over and magically be given a win, but there is real, genuine depth here.”

    • “The hand-drawn art style adds charm, and while the characters are quirky, they’re easy to pick up for casual play.”
    • “Visually, this features mediocre hand-drawn style 'baby's first Wacom tablet' art instead of contemporary graphics.”
    • “It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to create 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter.”
