Kaze Kiri - Ninja Action Overview

Kaze Kiri - Ninja Action is an official side-scrolling action game released for the NEC PC Engine CD. It came out in Japan during the early 1990s, though the exact year and developer are not widely documented. This version uses the CD-ROM format, which allowed for higher quality music and voice samples than standard HuCards. The title is a straightforward ninja-themed action game typical of the era's arcade-style platformers.

How to play Kaze Kiri - Ninja Action online

Getting Started

When you start Kaze Kiri, you are taken directly into the action. The game is entirely in Japanese, so navigation is done by trial and error. The main menu offers options like new game, continue, and settings. Press start (Enter) to begin or select (V) to cycle through choices.

As a ninja, your goal is to run and jump through horizontally scrolling stages, attacking enemies with your sword and shuriken. Each level ends with a boss encounter. The core loop is straightforward: move right, defeat foes, avoid or destroy obstacles, and collect power-ups or health items. Some stages may have vertical elements like climbing ropes or jumping between platforms.

New players should focus on mastering the jump and attack timing. The B button swings your sword, and holding it while moving may trigger a run. The A button jumps, and you can perform a short double jump in some versions. Watch enemy patterns, especially bosses. If you get a game over, continue from the start of the current stage. The game is short but challenging, typical of the era's action titles.
