Sunday Longplay - Mystic Warriors: Wrath of the Ninjas (Arcade)
8This week on Sunday Longplay, I'm playing another Arcade game from my youth. Welcome to Mystic Warriors! Mystic Warriors: Wrath of the Ninjas is a sidescrolling run-and-gun arcade game from Konami released in 1993. It's basically Contra with a ninja theme, like its predecessor Sunset Riders was like Contra with a wild west cowboy theme.
The premise of the story is in a dystopian future in New York, an evil organization known as the Skull Enterprise has taken over the nation and plots a worldwide takeover. The player takes control of one of five young ninja who are being targeted by Skull forces: Spyros, Keima, Kojiro, Brad, and Yuri.
The game can be played by up to two or four players (depending on the game's configuration); after each player chooses their character, one of the remaining members of the group will get kidnapped (if four of the five are chosen instead, the last remaining character will be captured), prompting the remaining four to begin their mission. During their journey across several regions of Japan, the four ninja eventually find and rescue their kidnapped friend. However, their reunion is short-lived, and the rescued ninja soon performs a sacrificial move to free them from an electric trap, dying in the process. The rest of the game is spent with the remaining ninja avenging the death of their fallen comrade.
This game never saw a home console release until just last December 21, 2023 when it became a part of the Arcade Archives series on Nintendo Switch and Playstation 5.
