Official description

The mad emperor Garuda controls the capital city. With his army of followers he has constructed a fortress that has withstood all armed resistance. Until... Two figures have been monitored stalking the war zone. They move as silently as ghosts and the chill of death surrounds them. The evil Garuda fears these intruders, for they are Ninjas. Their mission is to use arts of Ninjitsu to overthrow the emperor and destroy his wicked empire from within.
