Армия демонов осаждает родную деревню молодого ниндзя, вынуждая его отправиться в проклятый мир, чтобы доставить свиток, от которого зависит выживание его клана.
Армия демонов осаждает родную деревню молодого ниндзя, вынуждая его отправиться в проклятый мир, чтобы доставить свиток, от которого зависит выживание его клана. Игра, поначалу кажущаяся классическим экшн-платформером, оказывается масштабным приключением, полным путешествий во времени, переживаний, сюрпризов и шуток.
Динамический, акробатический геймплей и минималистическое управление – достойное решение для эпического приключения ниндзя.
Вам предстоит открыть улучшения для персонажа, новые способности, скрытые уровни и разветвленные тропы.
Тщательно проработанные 8- и 16-битные спрайты, анимация и фоны в духе старой доброй классики.

One of the most satisfying and fun game i've played on steam ! Gameplay is super fluid and rewarding and always bring something new and exciting so the game never get boring, story is very clever and funny with catchy chiptune and the game look freaking beautiful in both 8 and 16 bit <3 9.5/10
GOD THIS GAME IS SO GOOD I WANNA RE-EXPERIENCE IT AGAIN
First act, this game is a run-of-the-mill sidescrolling platformer. Second act turns the game into a metroidvania where you waste countless hours backtracking levels you've already beat to get to places you've been to collect mundane bullshit. Third act gets back to being good because it's actual new levels and bosses and no more backtrack horse ass. The humor is amazing and the story is basic but has a ton of twists and turns, even near the end. Whenever dots connect or elements are revealed it actually matters and has an effect on what's going on. Overall good game! Main problem is the middle chunk of the game spent walking back and forth through huge areas and doing the same platforming and fighting the same enemies in the same place with an absolutely abysmal fast-travel system: if you'd even call it that. Took me 12 hours to beat, about 6-8 was the backtracking. Worth buying if it's on sale and you don't mind the poorly done step retracing that comes with metroidvanias. It definitely stands out among the sea of these types of games, and i'll probably come back to it to finish getting all the collectables, do the free DLC, and try the new game plus.
like a new ninja gaiden nes style.
If you have played Hollow Knight and are searching for a game that scratches the same itch, then The Messenger might just be the game for you. A great story with a great soundtrack and a self-awareness on par with Undertale. It's clear that the developers poured their heart and soul into this title. I would highly recommend this to just about anybody.
