Shadow Assault: Tenchu

Shadow Assault: Tenchu is an action/strategy game in which players guide a ninja character through maze-like environments to defeat opponents. Players are sometimes given missions to "assassinate" characters or "eliminate" samurai by deploying several traps and laying down spring weapons. Some ninja weapons such as "firepillar" and "Shuriken" can be used to attack enemies directly. Others missions only require safe passage between two points as the player avoids hazards such as cannons, fire pits, spikes, boulders and arrows. When life meters are depleted, characters fall to the ground and disappear.
