About Choice of the Ninja
In the high-stakes game of politics between two feudal lords, you are a ninja village's chosen warrior. Earn glory for your clan as you battle your enemies, becoming a master of magic, combat, and stealth.
Choice of the Ninja is an epic, 185,000 word interactive fantasy novel by Katherine Buffington, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
Will you bring peace to your village, or return home in shame? Will you serve your daimyo obediently, or defy his orders for the greater good? Or will you use your powers of invisibility for personal gain? The choice is yours.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players appreciate Choice of the Ninja's engaging story structure with meaningful moral choices between opposing lords, challenging puzzle-like gameplay elements, and entertaining combat scenes. However, the game is frequently criticized for being too short relative to its price point and other titles in the series, compounded by the lack of a save system that forces players to restart from the beginning after dying or making a wrong choice, and some players report confusion with narrative coherence during certain decision points.
This game is simply too thin on thin on the ground. While the story promises to go in a number of interesting directions with the Player choosing between multiple allegiances there is little in the way of payoff. This is because of the short length of the game which clocks in at 150,000 words compared to other Choice of Games titles, some of which are close to half a million words long. Choice of the Ninja also has no save system meaning that if you die late in the game, as I did, you have to start from the very beginning. Even the rating and companion systems in this game are shallow compared to other CoG titles. I bought this game during a sale but still don't think it is worthwhile.6 found this helpful
I enjoy this story : it doesn't move in description to put more words in the count. Your are a hero and have a story to choose. That it Its little bit short so i find the price a bit too munch. This story clearly need some following. Does ninja live long and prosper ?1 found this helpful
You play a character who's just graduating ninja training. Have a personal quest to find out what happened to your missing parents. The main conflict is between a brutal lord and a pacifist lord. Supporting the brutal lord will make you wealthy+powerful, whereas supporting the pacifist lord is seen as more honorable path. Two ninja companions, a nice guy and a vengeful girl. Seems like there's gonna be a part 2, but this is a complete story. Pros: -Need to pass a ninja graduation test right off the bat. It's like solving a puzzle. -Pick your gender and name after passing ninja graduation test. Kinda lets you test out your character. -Enjoyed the fight scenes, especially the final fight. Very tricky. -Total of 4 missions you wil go on, vary in length. -Multiple opportunities to switch sides, become a double agent, unlock alternate options by working for other characters. Cons: -Didn't like how all your stats started at 50. They go up the more you use them, neglecting a stat will lower it slightly. -There's a romance option that asks how you feel about a character you literally know nothing about and haven't meet in the story yet. -Disappointed by conclusion to 2nd missio…1 found this helpful
Pretty decent game
I was really enjoying this game, I died on my first playthrough so had another go. I went with the same options as before. All was going well until a fight scene where you are asked to choose between 2 sides. I chose accordingly, but then after I had no idea what was happening?? With all the choices that I had made up to that point, it then seemed that a game error had occurred and I was just left scratching my head?? I was now part of some 3rd side...I clicked forward a few turns but nothing I read made sense bearing in mind how I'd chosen to play the game to that point. To make things worse you can't retrace your steps and there is no save. So to get to that point again and picking another option to see if things start to make sense, I'd have to start from scratch. To be honest I don't know wether I can be arsed!
good game
