Clumsy Ninja is an interesting game that gives the player the ability to train a ninja from scratch, and the wannabe martial artist starts off needing quite a bit of help from the player. If you've ever been curious about your ninja-training abilities, this game is the way to discover your skill.

This game is simply overflowing with personality and originality. You'll control the main character, who is a quirky and lovable pseudo-ninja that wants nothing more than to become a master. You'll have the ability to manipulate the ninja in just about any way imaginable, and many of those manipulations have hilarious outcomes.

The player will start by getting a feel for what the ninja can be made to do. Players can lift parts of his body, throw him across the screen like a rag doll, knock him down to the ground, force him to walk, and make his fight to gain his skills. There aren't many games for mobile platforms with this level of interaction, so the game is highly addictive and very amusing.

Some players will be satisfied with simply throwing the helpless ninja around the training area, but there is also an actual objective to the game. The idea is to train the ninja as much as possible by making him complete different challenges that earn in-game currency that can be used for upgrades and new skills. These challenges might include anything from striking practice bags or bouncing around on trampolines. The creativity in this game is immense, and that is another factor that keeps players returning.

The ninja will gain coins and experience as his completes challenges involved in the training process, and those currencies can be exchanged for upgrades and repairs to the ninja.

The game comes with a tutorial at the beginning, but most players will find it unnecessary since the controls are so intuitive. Almost anyone can pick up this game and enjoy it right away since the ninja reacts to direct manipulation on the touchscreen. The controls are quite sensitive by default, but that sensitivity helps the ninja perform actions that are exceptionally accurate and precise.

Clumsy Ninja uses a physics engine that is top notch. The Euphoria engine is excellent at simulating realistic physics, and every action taken by the ninja is controlled by the engine, so they all look very real. When combined with the cartoon-style graphics, it creates a visceral experience that is hard to beat. The game even portrays the personality of the ninja through various expressions of his eyes, which are the only part of him that is visible underneath his ninja costume.

Older Android devices might experience some lag with the game due to the complexity of the game engine, but newer devices should have no trouble running the game smoothly. Anyone who enjoys the virtual pet game style will adore Clumsy Ninja, which offers more sophistication and individuality than other similar games.
