  • Summary: In a post-apocalyptic future controlled by a sinister corporation, ninja mercenary Zaku is the last hope for humanity.

    Inspired by the demanding gameplay of 8-bit action/platformers, Oniken pits your agility and swordplay against a gauntlet of enemies, traps, and challenging bosses.

    This is a solid and really engaging hardcore retro throwback, and so if you’re looking for a blast to the past, you’ll feel like a kid again playing Oniken.

    If you have a fondness for classics like Ninja Gaiden and Strider then you'll love the ninja action in Oniken.

    Oniken: Unstoppable Edition turns out to be a good nod to generating 8-bit platform games with high difficulty by today's standards. This point can delight the most nostalgic. However, the lack of polish in the controls and their short duration remain too much in the overall experience.

A game from Joymasher andOniken: Unstoppable Edition - Dear retro game lovers, here's another challenging old-school game for you in Oniken. A game from Joymasher and highly inspired from games like Ninja Gaiden and Strider.
    Just like most of the game released back than it's a platformer action game. There's no excuses either you have the skills to play it or not. Graphics, sounds and difficulty from the retro era which is making some of us really emotional, I remember the times we played these games in first generation consoles .
    Cinematic cutscenes is something that prerequisite for many retro games for me Oniken has a lot
    of that feeling and emotion. Also you are not only running trough the minions or machines there's almost 20 boss fights as well, you need to deal with, which makes game more interesting. I hear you some of you saying "Ahh man I'm really hardcore player this is not hard enough for me" Try the new HARDCORE MODE then. If you're really into Oniken and you think that you really good at it there's
    amazing another feature in the game which is Global Leader board that you can track
    your place in the world. For more fun filled features, just download the game and give it a go!    … Expand
