GAMEPLAY Each of the sub levels in the game has had several explosive devices planted by the terrorists, and your task is to defuse and remove all of them in each area before moving on to the next. This task is made more difficult as each bomb has a timer attached thus creating a time limit for the completion of each level. Send your faithful Ninja dog to attack the enemy and then whilst they are distracted you can move in for the kill. Use Ninja Magic to eliminate all enemies in sight but use sparingly, as even a skilled Ninja such as yourself has limited powers. The controls are as follows...
