Summary

Ninja Burai Densetsu is a hidden gem from Sega’s early‑90s library, released only in Japan for the Mega Drive. The game feels like a cross between SystemSoft’s Daisenryaku war tables and Sega’s own Shining strategy titles, putting you in charge of a squad of ninjas locked in tactical combat. Press C to select a ninja or confirm an order, B to cancel or hop to the next unit, and A to pull up the battle menu where you can end your turn – a simple three‑button scheme that keeps the focus on positioning. Once you’ve set your moves, the fights resolve automatically, letting you watch the ninja clashes unfold without micromanaging each strike. The real twist comes from the side‑scrolling special stages: stepping onto a marked tile drops a ninja into a town where locals hand out useful items, adding a layer of exploration to the otherwise turn‑based grind.
