About This Game

Zool is a diminutive extraterrestrial being whose dimensional gateway misfires, stranding him on Earth with an ambitious mission: earning recognition as a true ninja master. To achieve this lofty aspiration, he must navigate across six distinct worlds, each subdivided into three challenging environments where he'll face off against hostile creatures and navigate treacherous terrain. Only by proving his combat prowess and platforming skills across these eighteen stages can Zool demonstrate that he possesses the discipline and strength required to claim the ninja title he desperately seeks.
