Most importantly, the game actually works, which is more than can be said for most games rated so severely, or indeed, most games released in the years hence. The dialogue is sometimes awkward, though no more than some localizations and better than many, the controls are tricky to get the hang of, but reward the player who spends the time to learn them, and the character designs, while not universally appealing, are still solid, and at very least appealing to look at. The game puts the player in control of Kurenai, an orphan who has been raised as a ninja and developed an affinity for the very weapon with which she was hanged from a tree. Red Ninja: End of Honor was universally panned by reviewers for its sloppy controls, lackluster writing, and tacky character design. Kurenai appeared along side Luba Licious (Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude), Mileena (Mortal Kombat), Nina (Tekken), and Tala (Darkwatch).Exactly what it wants to be, for better or for worse. Playboy PromotionĪs part of an effort to promote Red Ninja, Sierra allowed some of Kurenai's promotional artwork to be used in the October 2004 Edition of Playboy. By using the tetsugen she can attach to various pillars or other holds to swing across the levels as well as run along walls for a short period. Once the guard gets close enough, Kurenai will quickly kill the guard without alarming anyone around.Ī large part of Kurenai's stealth abilities revolves around the various acrobatics that she can perform. The seduction move will allow Kurenai to peak around a corner and get the attention of a nearby guard by doing a sensual pose of some kind which entices the guard to approach her. Probably the most unique mechanic introduced in Red Ninja is the "Seduction Move". Once full, the player can use this to slow all everything down in the game, aka "bullet time". By avoiding getting injured and kill multiple guards she will gain in her "Ninjutsu" guage. Kurenai can also use "kunai" (small knifes) as throwing weapons to either distract or kill a guard. If Kurenai is being attacked by multiple enemies, then when she attaches the tetsugen to one guard and then rotates around him then she can hit other enemies as well with the wire. Once an enemy's health is low enough, when she pulls the tetsugen out of a guard then he will either be decapitated, cut in half, or have his feet ripped off, depending on where the tetsugen was attached. Kurenai's main weapon is the tetsugen, she uses this weapon by throwing the knife portion into an enemy and then ripping it out again once it has attached. Red Ninja is largely based around 3rd-person stealth gameplay, the goal being to either kill or distract enemies without ever letting them know that you are there. After mastering this weapon she sets out on a vendetta against the Black Lizard Clan for her father's murder. Kurenai's weapon of choice becomes the "tetsugen" (essentially a knife attached to a wire) using the same wire that she was hung with.

Chiyome takes in Kurenai and begins to teach her how to fight. Kurenai was found hanging from the tree days later by Chiyome and somehow survives this experience. Red Ninja tells the story of Kurenai, who as a young girl witnessed her father murdered by the Black Lizard Clan and then was hung with a small wire to a tree.
