Introduction

Ninja Mission, (a.k.a, Ninja), an oldie by Mastertronic from 1987, is a decent game where you play as a ninja (hero) whose mission is to infiltrate a japanese palace to collect 7 idols and return them to the torii gates. The reason is unknown -- all we know is that he is willing to use maximum violence and minimal subterfuge.

The route in this game is deterministic, so it was easy to figure out the fastest way to get them idols and get out. The enemies and fights are mostly RNG. The most important aspect is to determine (and use) the type of critical attack for every enemy. Such attack will knockout the enemy immediately.

This was a short and fun game to TAS, so I think I am also going to do the DOS version.

Enjoy!
