    Reboot of a prehistoric NES game that's nicely presented but very old fashioned - it has virtually the same gameplay mechanics as Revenge Of Shinobi on the Genesis. An inoffensive little diversion but there's not much meat to it.

    The DS has given us plenty of solid side-scrollers, but Legend of Kage 2 is something special. [Nov 2008, p.104]

    A bit more ambition could've made this a true classic (how about some Wi-Fi co-op?), but as it stands, it's the next best thing to cramming GBA cult classic "Ninja Five-O" into your DS.

    With the bounty of acrobatics at your disposal, Legend of Kage 2 should fill your ninja-fix. That is, if you can handle being bitch-slapped by the difficulty.
