Rad Action

Ninja-Kid II, known in Japan as Ninja-kun Ashura no Shō and known in North America as Rad Action and JT-104, is a platform action video game first developed and published in 1987 by UPL in Japan. It is the direct sequel of Ninja-Kid.

Gameplay As with the original Ninja-Kid, the goal of each stage is to defeat the many enemies roaming around by first reaching them and then throwing ninja stars at them. Ninja-kun can also acquire scrolls that briefly give him stronger attacks, like a fire burst that takes out all nearby enemies. Each stage (or “scene”) has a different layout, with some being merely a single screen (such as Scene 1) as well as larger vertically- and horizontally-scrolling stages. The enemies are usually different too, with increasing difficulty.
