Avast ye me hearties! It’s me again yer friendly app pirate back from another booty hunting adventure with me crew and parrot pet. ‘Course me didn’t forget another dose of your favorite app review. I used to play ninja when I was a little lad. I still have the moves until today that I use when booty hunting. Har, har, har. Anyway, the app that I will share with ye buckos today has something to do with ninjas. It’s an arcade game by Part Time Monkey and ye will learn more about it in this review. All hands hoay and let’s begin!
Awesome Graphics
Thumbs up when it comes to the graphics of this app. It’s not something that is too complex, but its simplicity works for it. It has a clean and well-made background that changes in color. The terrain also changes as the ninja move forward with its adventure. It also has great effects when the ninja breaks something as you will see the things shatter or their pieces fly everywhere. The ninja and the bad guys are silhouettes with glowing eyes but you can determine that the main character is a ninja and the big bad guys are the enemies.
Smooth Movement Except for a Few Hiccups
The movement of the ninja and the effects when things are broken or damaged are all smooth. It’s nice how you can keep on playing without experiencing lags, except for a few instances. We noticed this when the ninja is making a jump, but most of the time, it runs smoothly. A minor improvement on this area will make playing even better.
Fantastic Background Music and Sound Effects
Another department that deserves a thumbs-up is the background music. The first time you play the game, you will immediately feel that it’s a ninja game because of the music playing in the background. It’s the typical sound that you’ll hear not just on ninja games, but on movies too. This is also true with the sound effects. You will hear that distinct sound that ninjas usually make when they hit something.
It Comes with Advertisements
Breakout Ninja is available for free. As you may already expect, it comes with advertisement. They are not as annoying as those in other games, but still, they can at times get in to you.
The Pros
It’s free and it has amazing background music and graphics that will set the tone of a fantastic ninja game. You will feel like a real ninja because of these. It’s smooth most of the time and it’s an arcade game that can effectively kill time.
The Cons
It has advertisements that may not be as annoying as others, but it can also affect your playing experience at some point. There are times that the game lags, especially at the part where the ninja jumps.
The Verdict
Breakout Ninja has some hiccups when it comes to the speed as it lags at times. There are also advertisements. However, considering that it’s free, it’s smooth to play most of the time, and it has amazing graphics and music, this is a good download.
