Shadow of the Ninja
For a side-scrolling beat 'em up, it doesn't do anything to set itself apart from the plethora of other similar games on the NES.
The style of game reminds me a little of the TMNT NES game (albeit without the cool IP or the use of different characters).
The game gives you different items to use which is nice, but the controls are lackluster. You can jump up and grab onto the bottoms of platforms. Sometimes I could jump above them and other times I'd be stuck. One such situation got me stuck from progressing any further so I gave up.
