Gameplay

The game places the player in charge of one of several selectable characters from the Tenchu universe. Players are given a task to complete on each level, playing out much like Bomberman , where players must place ninja traps and other items on the field for enemies to run afoul of.

Enemies in the game have a hit point total, displayed above their heads, and a line of sight grid, shown as yellow squares over the regular terrain. When a player is spotted by a unit, its sight turns to red squares, and it begins to chase the player. After a time, if the player has yet to be reacquired by the enemy, it will return to its original pathfinding.
