Action-platformer featuring a rodent ninja in a colourful cartoon universe. Offbeat humour, acrobatic moves and level variety are enjoyable. An accessible and entertaining title for young players, unpretentious but well executed for its target audience.

Description
An Argonaut Games and Namco action-platformer released in 2003. Players take on I-Ninja, a tiny chibi ninja, through a series of linear 3D levels with very varied mechanics (running, stealth, sword combat, minigames). Cheerful, colorful and brisk: a more exotic platformer than the era's Crash and Ratchet.

Is I-Ninja still worth playing in 2026?

An action platformer from Argonaut, I-Ninja stages a small hot-tempered ninja in fast 3D levels blending sword combat, platforming and inventive on-rails sections. The boundless energy, the cartoon humour and the variety of situations give the adventure pep. The imperfect camera and an uneven difficulty sometimes slow the fun. A dynamic, endearing platformer for fans of PS2 era 3D mascots and colourful action games with a brisk pace.
