Super Ninja Boy


Super Ninja Boy is an action role-playing game released for the Super NES. It features random encounters with side-scrolling battles, although some boss battles are fought with a traditional menu-based system. There are also a few platforming sections.
In single-player mode, the main character is Jack. The game can be switched between single player and multiplayer at will, with the second player controlling Ryu. Jack and Ryu share statistics, so one character never overpowers the other.
Super Ninja Boy features a password system to record progress.
It is a sequel to Culture Brain's previous title, Little Ninja Brothers for the NES and contains a few cameos from other Culture Brain's games.

Gameplay

Super Ninja Boy combines classic role-playing video game elements with action game elements. The player controls the main character Jack and randomly encounters enemies on the world map and in dungeons. In side-scrolling battles, the player can jump, punch, throw enemies, use items like shurikens or techniques such as the super jump or fireball. Battles take place in a beat'em up style and end after a specific number of enemies are killed. Boss battles are fought in a turn-based RPG style, using the same items and skills as normally.
There are also some 2D platform areas, which play the same as the normal battles without depth.
