Electronic Theatre delivers an in-depth review of Ninja Captains, the new mini-game compliation released today across Europe on Nintendo DS and Wii by publisher Nordcurrent.

With only twenty mini-games included on the disc, Ninja Captains fails to live-up to the standards set by the likes of Mario Party, but manages to out-do most of the recent competition, including SEGA’s Wacky World of Sports, by sheer number alone. The Story Mode can be played through with up to four players, with each of the games played-through in sequence. Once a game has been completed in Story Mode it becomes available in Party Mode, where the player is free to try and beat their own score and achieve Bronze, Silver or Gold standard medals (displayed as a shuriken atop the game on the selection screen), or upgrade their score from a Baby mode entry.
