10 seconds ninja x is a puzzle platformer. It’s a sequel to 10 Seconds Ninja which was released back a couple of years ago. In this game you must complete your objective within 10 seconds as the name of the game suggests. This can make for some very fun strategic and twitch gameplay. Not only your jumps/attacks be quick, they must also be accurate and one wrong move will have you starting the stage over again.
Graphics:

The graphics are pretty plain and simple. The game is pretty and nicely colorful. The game is locked at 60 FPS and I got 60 FPS throughout the whole time I played.

Sound:

The music is okay too. It keeps you entertained. Nothing to write home about. The sound itself is good though, the jumping, sword strikes and the shorukens sound pretty nice.

Gameplay:

The game's story is that the evil Captain Greatbeard has kidnapped you and your friends from a forest and into his ship. This is where your adventure begins. The gameplay is very simple. You are a ninja and you must destroy these robots by Captain Greatbeard in each level to progress. You’re given 10 seconds to complete your objective. In between the missions you can go around the ship and talk to other people who have been kidnapped too.

You have jump and double jump. You get a sword weapon and 3 shoryukens which you must use wisely. Not only do you have to be accurate with your movement you must also strategize your kill order. This is very important as a wrong kill order will waste your time. You must figure out the most efficient way to kill the robots. In the later levels new things are introduced such as robots who only die to shoryukens and can kill you if you go near them as they are surrounded by a short electric field, switches which must be pressed in the right order, etc.

Each level costs around 20 stars to activate so you must get at least 2 star score in every stage of the levels. Getting 3 stars can be very difficult as I wasn’t able to get 3 stars in any of the 3 level stages I played so far. Each level contains 10 stages and you can earn stars when you finish the stage. The quicker you are the more stars you get. The game will tell you to beat x number of seconds for the next star level. These stars are important as you cannot progress to the next level until you have the required number of stars.

Conclusion:

This game can be extremely addictive. Once you get hooked you keep on playing and you just want to beat the level you’re stuck in. The game can be frustrating at times so this game is mostly going to be for hardcore players who love a challenge. As of writing this review the game is 40% off, so it’s a good bargain in my opinion.
