The original “Ninja Ryukenden II” is one of the best NES/Famicom games. This hack is an attempt to look at the game in a new way. It includes five difficulty levels: the one similar to the Original and four greater difficulties, which may remind you of that nostalgic times, when you were still far from an expert in the game…

• Just press “Start” on the title screen to play the game with standard 1x Damage Multiplier,
• Press “Select” to change Damage Multiplier: once - for the 2x damage, twice - for the 4x damage, three times - for 8x damage, and four - for instant-death-mode (each press will be followed with a sound of a sword slash), and then press “Start” to play,
• Press “Select” MORE than 4 times to unlock the hidden “BGM-TEST MODE”, which really goes in 3 different variants (with Ryu, Irene or both of them - and with the song titles!) - depending on how many times the opening cutscene started and was cancelled.
