Personal review

In Shinobi, you control Joe Musashi, also known as 'Shinobi', who fights against all crimes and defeats all kinds of evil organizations like the Yakuza. In each stage you have to rescue some hostages, who will give you power-ups when you free them. After the completion of 2-3 stages you have to defeat a boss, where you can either use your martial arts techniques or throw shuriken with deadly precision.

Shinobi is another cool arcade classic ported by SEGA. And it's an absolute Must-Have for the Master System. 'nuff said!

Official description

You're Jo-Musashi, a mild-mannered martial arts instructor. But you have another job as well. When duty calls, you're a Master Ninja! Your mission: An evil terrorist network, the Ring of Five, has kidnapped the children of the world's leaders! You must get the hostages back... and defeat the Ring of Five! They're waiting for you with gunmen, thugs, mongos and green ninjas. But you alone have the power of Ninja Magic!
