Let's practice ninjutsu (mini game) at Ninjutsu Gakuen! The game is divided into a `training volume` and a `competition volume`. In `Training Volume`, you can choose your favorite character from Rantaro, Kirimaru, and Shinpei to play the game. Each shinobi has its own characteristics, so let's identify and challenge each individuality! In `Battle Volume`, you can play CPU battles and 2P battles using communication cables. The number of characters that can be used increases with the `Training Volume`. There are five types of games: `jumping`, `gunning`, `shuriken`, `foot rowing`, and `swimming`.
