Prepare yourself for a Ninja adventure unlike any other as Feral Interactive announces the release of Mini Ninjas for the Mac on Friday, June 11th. Developed by Io Interactive, Mini Ninjas follows the young ninjas, Hiro and his friends as they travel through spellbound lands to do battle with a magical army of animals-turned-samurai.
Brimming with inventiveness and full of fun, Mini Ninjas offers delightful characters in a beautifully animated world. Whether you're using Hiro's magic, Futo's might, Suzume's stealth, or another path entirely, players are sure of an experience that is enticing, exciting and funny.
With a charming visual style and gameplay that encourages exploration, Mini Ninjas offers younger players a light-hearted yet epic adventure, free of gruesome violence and high on magic.
“Mini Ninjas is such a beautifully imagined game that it makes you want to explore every nook and cranny of its world.” said Feral Interactive’s David Stephen.
“We are delighted to see Mini Ninjas arrive on the Mac” said Io Interactive’s Brand Marketing Director, Justin Hills “Its great style and appeal for younger gamers makes it ideal for the platform.”
