games: N+

N+ is a new game out on Xbox Live Arcade. Who can resist the opportunity to be a Ninja? Not I, for sure - hence my awesomely leet ninja outfit.

The game is available now for just 800 points - take a look at the video for my take on the physics-based platformer.

Nice review as always. Concise, to the point, and very funny with t he whole ninja outfit and skulking about trees. I only wish this was on PSN (my days with XBLA are done thanks to the 4 months I had to endure getting my repaired console revalidated), but I’ll definitely be looking up the PC version of N.

Killer ninja gear, kat.

Perhaps that rating should have been four ’shurikens’.

You just happened to have a Ninja suit in the closet? :p

I’m not so convinced that I should get this game, but that’s not your problem; good review, just wonder how much “better” it is than N…800 points is cheap though. We’ll see how I feel about it if I ever actually finish N.

Kudos for the outfit though. And good informative review as usual. In the back of my mind, after Zelda DS, I was actually wondering what game would get you to dress the part again.

I think that’s a niqāb — the full-closure veil that Muslim women wear.

Refreshing change to the show!

Great game, and you taught me a new word: niggles!
Sounds like squiggles!
