Red Ninja: End of Honor brings action adventure games to the next level with groundbreaking gameplay, and a brand new character to bring it all to life! In the 16th Century, Japan was experiencing an age of provincial wars among rival warlords. The Takeda and Oda clans, the two biggest clans of that era, were fighting each other furiously. Both powers were scheming to defeat its enemy by any means, and there were people playing important roles actively behind the scenes. They are called NINJA, the assassin in the darkness... Due to this war the power of the samurai class is fading and the use of the Ninja has become necessary to hold any political power in this chaotic time. A young girl's world is destroyed when she and her father are attacked by the deadly Black Lizard Clan, who after witnessing her father's death, is captured and brutally hung by a wire and left to die. Miraculously, she survives and is rescued and adopted into a clan where she obtains complete mastery of her unique weapon, the wire. Pledging her undying loyalty to her new family, Kurenai now lives to avenge her father's death and will go to any means necessary to destroy the Black Lizard Clan.
