Whenever I hear the word ninja, I usually think of an assassin who has mastered all these cool tricked out moves but in Kunoichi there was none. I was left with a very sweet taste in mouth. Kunoichi starts out with a so-so story but in a few minutes I was drawn in with the intense action. In the first 10 minutes of play I had to hunt down and find a number of other initiates. (That scene reminded me of a certain Asian movie called Battle Royale.) I died once and was forced to strategize to destroy my competition. After you complete the hunting, the story continues on as you complete more of the initiation process by undertaking many different quests.
