_DESCRIPTION
Pocket Ninja is a 3D hyper-casual, stealth game for mobile. The gameplay consists of guiding the Ninja/Player by drawing a path with your finger; this movement is also the foundation for combat by drawing paths into enemies to attack them.
You must time your movement precisely and use shadows to stay hidden. You can also use throwing stars to interact with the environment or distract enemies which creates unique ways of beating levels.
