"ninjas are meant to kill, not cuddle. Enter Go Ninja! by Hiptic Games to bring a ninja game back to the hardcore fans! … a very crisp looking game with some real smooth running animation. This comes at no surprise coming from esteemed Street Fighter artist and art director for this game, Long Vo. Moving, jumping and slashing looks real smooth and fluid." 5/5 – Ultramegadeathray
"Totally digging this Ninja game right now" – Freddie Wong of Rocketjump.com

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The game pace is pretty fast. Upgrades are a little expensive, but overall a great game to burn time.
This bring a true meaning to ninja games. A better and more realistic one.
But the menu gliched for us after the update.
Great game! Please add more unlockables, will pay $$$.
Very fun and very addictive personally.
Awesome art, sound. Quick simple gameplay.
It's a nice quick game when you have a few minutes to spare.
Awesome ! Time killer for a free app.
We play this game on the train to work everyday and we never got bored. It's fast pace, fun and there is blood! That's what we are taking about.
Five stars speak for them selves.
Great game keep the updates coming.
This is by far most satisfying in short amount of time.
We love this game very addicting.
This game is awesome alot of fun we just wish there were different levels to play it gets annoying looking at the same background. But still a fun and cool looking game.
Great fast paced slash em ninja gaiden like game.
Pays respects to ninja's! Word up.
This game it fun it's great for killing time when your bored and don't know what to do :3:3.
Most time spent playing this game.
Thank you for making an actual ninja game, we've been waiting for a game like this.
It awesome even when we slice them.
This needs to be put on a console best game buy far we have downloaded.
We just hope there were more characters. :(.
More ninja to come and enemies hahaha.
This game is ridiculously polished! Amazing and fluid gameplay, awesome production value, tons of unlockables, and sick graphics! MUST HAVE.
Great game for the iPad we have so much fun with this game hopefully there is a sequel :).
This game is one of the best games we have ever played since we had got this iPod they should make another.
One of the best games for apple.
This game we would say single-handedly renewed our faith in iOS gaming. Graphics are sick the gameplay is genius for a Ninja game but what we like most is that sick soundtrack! Omg what would make this game the best would be to add more variety in levels! Add a cave section, a mountain and a forest section for example.
Awesome game, but we really think that there should be more maps.
The style of the objects are really great and we hope there could be more chapters or maps~.
We love this game it keeps us on our p's and q's very good game.
Thank you to whoever had the idea to break the fruit ninja trend and make this game. It is spectacular, from the easy controls to the graphics, it has become our new obsession Thank you to the makers oh Go Ninja! Keep up the great work and may your next game be even more thrilling.
Awesome Never ending ninjatastic funny.

This game is so much fun. After reading the game description, we gave it a GO and jumped right into it. Great game, funny yet cool animation and graphics. Love the unlocks and missions…5 stars *****.
Killem All !!!!!!!!!!! Hahahaha.
It wasn't at first, but then you get into it and you're hooked.
Great game for when you want to fight ninjas. Great gameplay.
Works great! Fun playing, looks good.
The game is very simple, yet we just can't stop playing. Love the brutality and totally love the Grant Imahara feature! We've yet to kill 500 demon samurais though.
This app is amazing, we showed it to our friend and now it's an ongoing battle to see who the better ninja is, it's very fun and addictive.
