Wall Ninja

A one-button ninja climber. Leap between the walls of an endless shaft, stomp wall-crawlers for combos, collect scrolls and dodge spikes, spinning blades and crows as the pace picks up.

Wall Ninja is a one-button arcade game about a masked ninja clinging to the walls of a never-ending shaft. Tap or press Space and he flips across to the opposite wall in a quick arc. That single move is both your dodge and your weapon, because leaping straight into a wall-crawler stomps it, and every stomp in the same jump multiplies the points.

The shaft scrolls faster the further you go and passes through four paper-painted stages: Bamboo Dawn, Sakura Noon, Sunset Gate and Moon Temple. The first rows are gentle, with scrolls and a lone crawler, then spike strips, spinning blades that slide from side to side and crows with a warning mark appear. Spikes are always spaced so there is room to leap between them. A rare blue shield absorbs one hit and blasts nearby dangers away. Presses made while you are still in the air are remembered for a moment, so quick chains feel smooth. Total meters climbed are saved as a dojo rank from Novice to Shadow Master, and Chunin rank begins every run with a shield.

It is a good pick for short, reflex-heavy sessions on a phone or keyboard. Tip: do not leap on a fixed rhythm. Watch the next hazard on your wall and wait for the stomp window on the other side.

How to play

Tap, click or press Space to leap to the other wall. Leap into wall-crawlers to stomp them and chain combos, collect scrolls for points, and avoid spikes, spinning blades and crows. Grab blue shields to survive one hit. The run ends when you touch a hazard.
