'''''Alex Kidd in Shinobi World''''' is a game released in 1990 for the [[Sega Master System]] console. It is the sixth and final game in the [[Alex Kidd]] series. The game is a parody of the game [[Shinobi]], with the small difference of Alex Kidd playing the hero’s role. Alex Kidd must rescue his girlfriend from the evil ninja Hanzo. He is transformed into a ninja by a mysterious deity, the White Ninja, to help him perform this task. It was supposedly called '''''Shinobi Kid''''' during development (according to GamePro's March 1990 "Short ProShots" section, at least)

''Alex Kidd in Shinobi World'' received favourable responses from both gamers and reviewer alike, and many consider it one of the finest Master System games ever made. It also notably introduced a wall-to-wall jumping mechanic that would later appear in ''[[Ninja Gaiden (Master System)|Ninja Gaiden]]'' for the Master System and ''[[Shinobi III]]'' for the [[Mega Drive]].
 +
 
 +
==Story==
 +
A malevolent being called the Dark Ninja has escaped from 10,000 years of banishment. As part of his plan to take over Miracle Girl, he kidnaps Alex Kidd's girlfriend while the pair are vacationing on the planet Shinobi. A mysterious entity, the White Ninja, appears and grants his ninja power to Alex so he can rescue her.
  
 
==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
−
The game plays similarly to previous games in the Alex Kidd series, but with some major differences. Alex attacks with a sword, instead of his trademark fist. Ninja knives can be found, which can be used to attack enemies at a distance. Ninja magic can also be found, which allows Alex to temporarily turn into a whirlwind. Alex can also climb up ropes, bounce off walls, or swing from lamp posts and pipes to fling himself at his attackers. This is the only game in the series that has a life meter. Alex can take three hits, but he can restore his health by finding a heart. When Alex has six hit points, any further hearts become extra lives.
+
The game is an action platformer that plays more similarly to the original ''[[Shinobi]]'' game than to the previous [[Alex Kidd]] games, with some unique mechanics. The player controls Alex Kidd, who must make it to the exit of each stage and fight a boss at the end of each round. Environments and enemy designs are also inspired by ''Shinobi'' but in a more cartoonish style.
  
−
==Stages==
+
Alex walks with {{left}} or {{right}}. He squats with {{down}} or walks while crouched with {{downleft}} or {{downright}}. He can jump with {{2}}. Alex attacks with {{1}}, using a sword instead of his trademark fist. He can attack while jumping or squatting (and he can destroy flashing blocks or treasure chests below him by attacking while squatting). Ninja knives can be found, which can be used to attack enemies at a distance, replacing his sword attack. Ninja magic can be found that allows Alex to temporarily turn into an invincible whirlwind.

Alex can climb up ladders, ropes, or poles with {{up}} or {{down}}. He can grab a horizontal bar with {{up}}+{{2}} when standing under it or {{down}}+{{2}} when standing on top of it. While hanging from a pole or bar, Alex can start spinning on it by holding {{1}}, which causes him to turn into a fireball, then launch away when the player releases {{1}} (optionally while holding a direction on the D-Pad to direct Alex). He is invulnerable in this state, so he can eliminate enemies or plow through destructible blocks while in his flying fireball form. It also allows him to reach areas that are otherwise inaccessible to him. Alex can bounce between two close walls by pressing {{2}} while holding {{left}} or {{right}} toward the wall. He can repel up narrow passageways this way.

This is the only game in the series that has a life meter. Alex starts each round with three health points, but he can restore a lost health point by finding a heart. Alex can obtain up to six health points, after which any further hearts become extra lives. He loses a life if he loses all of his health points, and the game ends if the player runs out of lives but can be continued from the beginning of the round. The player gets a 2,000-point bonus for every health point left when a round is completed and a 10,000-point "Perfect Bonus" for completing a round with six health points. There is also a 10,000-point "Secret Bonus" given for completing the entire round without getting hit or losing life at any point.

==Super Mario Parody==
+
==History==
−
During the development phase, in which the game was named "Shinobi Kid", first boss Kabuto was actually going to be a parody of Super Mario, Nintendo's most well-known character. He was supposed to have a moustache and named "Mari-Oh" but this was later dropped due to possible copyright problems. The obscure reference still remains however as Kabuto shrinks (similar to Mario who also shrinks when damaged, before the dies) when players inflict enough damage to him.

''Computer & Video Games'' magazine gave the game a score of 92% in its September 1990 issue.

He praised the playability that "becomes progressively more difficult as you go along," and concluded that it is a "great game" overall.{{ref|http://www.smspower.org/Reviews/AlexKiddInShinobiWorld-SMS-CVG-106}} In 1991, "The Complete Guide to Sega" issue of ''Computer and Video Games'' gave it a 90% score, describing the game as "probably the best in the Alex series so far" and "a hilarious mixture of Alex Kidd and Shinobi." They stated it is "a platform chop-socky game" with "top-notch" graphics and "excellent" sound, including "cutesy version of the Shinobi title music!" They concluded that it is "Dead funny" and "playable as heck," recommending readers to "grab hold of at the first opportunity!"{{ref|http://www.smspower.org/Reviews/AlexKiddInShinobiWorld-SMS-CVGCompleteGuideToSega}}

''[[Sega Pro]]'' magazine gave the game a score of 88% in its inaugural November 1991 issue, describing it as a "huge game" with "so much to do that addiction is guaranteed." They stated that it is a "one-player only game but with something this good you wouldn't want anyone else to intrude" and concluded that it is "Great fun." [http://segaretro.org/index.php?title=File:Segapro_UK_01.pdf&page=19] The October 1992 issue of ''[[Mean Machines Sega]]'' gave it an 88% score, stating that it is the "latest and greatest Kidd game." They described it as "a parody of the Shinobi landscape" and concluded it to be a "a humorous and very playable cart" that is "Recommended."{{ref|http://www.smspower.org/Reviews/AlexKiddInShinobiWorld-SMS-MeanMachinesSegaGamesIndex}}

Alex Kidd in Shinobi World is a game released in 1990 for the Sega Master System console. It is the sixth and final game in the Alex Kidd series. The game is a parody of the game Shinobi, with Alex Kidd replacing the ninja Joe Musashi.

Alex Kidd in Shinobi World received favourable responses from both gamers and reviewer alike, and many consider it one of the finest Master System games ever made. It also notably introduced a wall-to-wall jumping mechanic that would later appear in Ninja Gaiden for the Master System and Shinobi III for the Mega Drive.

Story

A malevolent being called the Dark Ninja has escaped from 10,000 years of banishment. As part of his plan to take over Miracle Girl, he kidnaps Alex Kidd's girlfriend while the pair are vacationing on the planet Shinobi. A mysterious entity, the White Ninja, appears and grants his ninja power to Alex so he can rescue her.

Gameplay

The game is an action platformer that plays more similarly to the original Shinobi game than to the previous Alex Kidd games, with some unique mechanics. The player controls Alex Kidd, who must make it to the exit of each stage and fight a boss at the end of each round. Environments and enemy designs are also inspired by Shinobi but in a more cartoonish style.

Alex walks with Left or Right. He squats with Down or walks while crouched with Down-left or Down-right. He can jump with 2. Alex attacks with 1, using a sword instead of his trademark fist. He can attack while jumping or squatting (and he can destroy flashing blocks or treasure chests below him by attacking while squatting). Ninja knives can be found, which can be used to attack enemies at a distance, replacing his sword attack. Ninja magic can be found that allows Alex to temporarily turn into an invincible whirlwind.

Alex can climb up ladders, ropes, or poles with Up or Down. He can grab a horizontal bar with Up+2 when standing under it or Down+2 when standing on top of it. While hanging from a pole or bar, Alex can start spinning on it by holding 1, which causes him to turn into a fireball, then launch away when the player releases 1 (optionally while holding a direction on the D-Pad to direct Alex). He is invulnerable in this state, so he can eliminate enemies or plow through destructible blocks while in his flying fireball form. It also allows him to reach areas that are otherwise inaccessible to him. Alex can bounce between two close walls by pressing 2 while holding Left or Right toward the wall. He can repel up narrow passageways this way.

This is the only game in the series that has a life meter. Alex starts each round with three health points, but he can restore a lost health point by finding a heart. Alex can obtain up to six health points, after which any further hearts become extra lives. He loses a life if he loses all of his health points, and the game ends if the player runs out of lives but can be continued from the beginning of the round. The player gets a 2,000-point bonus for every health point left when a round is completed and a 10,000-point "Perfect Bonus" for completing a round with six health points. There is also a 10,000-point "Secret Bonus" given for completing the entire round without getting hit or losing life at any point.

 Ninja's Crystal Ball
Temporarily turns Alex into a tornado, which flies through the air and can be moved in any direction using the D-Pad. He is invulnerable in this state (aside from bottomless pits) and can damage enemies by touching them. The tornado also generates smaller twisters that bounce around the screen attacking damage enemies.

Rounds

The game consists of four rounds, roughly based on the missions from the original Shinobi. Each round is divided into three stages, with the last stage consisting of a boss battle.

Kabuto
Maps: 1️⃣ | 2️⃣ 
Boss:
Kabuto
Set in a city. It is a parody of the first round of Shinobi. The end boss, Kabuto, is a parody of Ken Oh from Shinobi, a samurai who throws fireballs. He shrinks to a smaller size after sustaining enough damage (after which he can only be hit by squatting attacks), similar to Nintendo's mascot Mario, whom he originally parodied when the game was in development.

Boss:
Heli
Set in a harbor. It is a parody of the second round of Shinobi. The end boss is Heli, a robotic face who spits a fleet miniature helicopters (resembling Opa-Opa). It is a parody of the Black Turtle, who attacks with a cadre of ninjas rather than helicopters, and Mandara, a robotic face, from Shinobi.

The Battle with the Dark Ninja
Maps: 1️⃣ | 2️⃣ 
Boss:
The Dark Ninja
Set in an ancient Japanese castle. It is a parody of the final round of Shinobi. Kabuto and Robster are fought again in the second stage, then the Dark Ninja is fought in the final stage, with very similar phases as the Masked Ninja of Shinobi.

History

Development

It was known as Shinobi Kid during development[11] (according to GamePro's March 1990 "Short ProShots" section). The first boss Kabuto was originally supposed to be a parody of Super Mario, Nintendo's most well-known character. He was supposed to be named "Mari-Oh" and have a moustache, but this was later dropped due to possible copyright problems. The reference still remains however as Kabuto shrinks (similar to Mario who also shrinks when damaged, before the dies) when players inflict enough damage to him.
