Play Ninja Crusaders (USA) Online Free

Ninja Crusaders is a side-scrolling action game released by Sammy for the Nintendo Famicom on December 14, 1990. Choose from two ninjas, play solo or co-op, and stop alien invaders. Set in modern times with fantasy elements, it features 5 main stages (10 sub-stages) with rising difficulty. Collect 4 weapons: shuriken, chain, gun, and sword. Each has unique attacks and lets you transform into an animal: - **Shuriken**: Tiger form – fastest speed, high jump, short attack range. - **Chain**: Sea scorpion form – agile in water, fast attacks, medium range. - **Gun**: Hawk form – free flight, but cannot attack. - **Sword**: Dragon form – invincible, one-hit thunder shots, but rare and time-limited. Hold attack to revert to human form; you’re briefly invincible before landing. All animal forms can carry allies, adding co-op strategy. One hit kills your ninja, so play carefully – late-game enemies are fast with varied attacks. Difficulty ramps up, and while bosses are challenging, they’re easier than the stages themselves. With its unique transformation system, clever level design, and co-op mode, Ninja Crusaders is a classic Famicom title with rich gameplay.
