i can't really handle action games on touch except for a couple. I usually just play RPG's and stuff. It's lame because there's so many awesome games. When i upgrade my iphone I'm going to get a controller for it.

Ninja Striker! is a fairly simple one-touch iOS game. Or so it seems. It doesn’t make the best first impression because it’s too simplistic. You just tap somewhere on the screen to send your little pixelly ninja flying in that direction, katana swinging. Anything in the way will get sliced and if you tap on an enemy specifically, you’ll fly to that enemy and stay there slashing it until it dies. Your ninja can also stick to walls and ceilings. Three hits and you’re dead but there’s nothing to worry about. The first couple levels are pretty boring because they’re so easy. Things start to change with the first boss though. He’s a little guy about your size and he jumps around shooting baby tornados at you. If you just sit there hitting him, you’ll die pretty fast. You have to jump around and make strategic swipes at the boss. Then the second set of levels are much more complicated with lots of bottomless pits and deadly spikes. It takes a lot more planning and attention to make it to the end of the level intact. I’ve now played through the second boss and Ninja Striker! has gone from a game that I was going to drop with a disinterested “meh” to a game I’m interested to see where it’ll go next.
