Ninjabread Man actually started life as a re-imagining of the Commodore Amiga classic Zool: Ninja of the Nth Dimension which was largely favourably received on its initial release in 1992. Zoo Digital Publishing commissioned DDI to re-imagine Zool as a 3D game for eventual release on PlayStation 2 and Gamecube, however the publisher was unimpressed with the results and canned the project. DDI opted to continue with the game, but changing the theme and character for Ninjabread Man.
Ninjabread Man has received extremely negative reviews from critics and has been regarded as one of the worst games ever made, being heavily criticized for its controls, camera system, graphics and short length. Ninjabread Man Download free Full Version.
Gameplay
Ninjabread Man is an action-adventure platformer. There are three levels in the game, plus a tutorial level. In order to proceed to the next level, players must collect eight power rods to activate a teleporter. When the player completes a level and plays it again, a menu appears with a second mode available, ‘Score Pickups’. If the level is completed again in this mode, the player will unlock ‘Time Attack’ mode. Completion of this mode unlocks the ‘Hidden Pickups!’ alternative mode. Several comic attacks appear in the game, such as the Samurai Sword attack that reduces enemies to jam.
Reception
Ninjabread Man received unanimously negative reviews upon release. The PlayStation 2 version of the game has a 31% average rating on GameRankings, while the Wii version has an average of 17.5%. On Metacritic, the Wii version of the game has an average score of 20/100, based on 6 reviews. The PC version of the game was not reviewed by any major publication. Despite the negative reception of the first game, on January 23, 2008, a sequel titled Ninjabread Man II: Blades of Fury was announced.
IGN gave the Wii version a score of 1.5/10, saying: «Is Ninjabread Man actually a good game? No chance. It’s buggy, often completely broken, somehow manages to have frame issues in tiny levels, and is completely ruthless if (and when) younger players die.» Thunderbolt gave it 1/10, citing the game's length and the unimaginative use of the character as key flaws, «Ninjabread Man could be a cool guy with a bad attitude, in a stark and ironic contrast to his surroundings. He could be the Jack Bauer of the bakery, but instead our hero is silent and lifeless.» Ninjabread Man Game free Download Full Version.
ScrewAttack made it a SAGY nominee for «Worst Multiplatform Game of 2007», blaming the quality assurance testers for not pointing out the flaws.
Sequel
Despite the negative reception of the first game, on January 23, 2008, a sequel titled Ninjabread Man II: Blades of Fury was announced. Not much information nor a release date had been issued. But it had been revealed that Data Design had created a website asking for the fans of the game to give ideas for the sequel. It is likely the sequel will never be developed due to Data Design ceasing development in 2009. Ninjabread Man game free Download for PC Full Version.
