Shurican app review: get ready to become addicted

Reviews

Introduction

There are some games that are just addictive and challenging right from the start and this is an example of exactly that. The Shurican app can be played on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and features a cute little ninja. You will be controlling the ninja as you work your way past all kinds of enemies and obstacles. The game uses touch functionality so it's very easy to control and you'll quickly become obsessed with trying to make it to the top of the Leaderboards.

Use Your Skills and Climb the Leaderboards

In the Shurican app you’ll be using your stealthy ninja skills to destroy enemies and avoid obstacles in your quest to climb to the top of the Leaderboards and of course earn bragging rights. You'll be using finger taps to control your ninja hero. You need to jump over your obstacles which are made up of things such as spikes and saw blades that are moving. You will have weapons to ward off the enemies with such as your shuriken stars, which are sure to cause deadly damage. There are actually a number of ninja skills that you will be learning along the way and all of these skills are what will help you climb the ranks.

This app is a brand-new release but that hasn't stopped it from getting five out of five stars from users. It seems like developers hit a homerun with this offering between its cute and fun graphics, its’ easy to understand gameplay, and the level of challenge it offers players. Players have described the app as fun and awesome.

The Gameplay Experience

When you launch Shurican you have the option between two modes of play: Endless or Challenge. When you’re still learning and getting a hang of the game the Endless mode is a great one to use because you can keep playing. I will say that even though the gameplay is very simple, it’s similar to Flappy Birds and it’s incredibly hard to master. It’s for that exact reason that you find yourself hooked as you try to out-do your score each and every time.

I have to mention the graphics and sound effects as they are both super fun and cute. They add another element to the game making it all the more enjoyable. One player has commented that the game will likely become huge and I have to agree because this one is way too fun to put down.
