Developed by Pandorabox.
Released in November 1995.
This game is known in Japan as "Oni - The Ninja Master" and is an off shoot of the, then popular, Oni series of RPGs by Pandorabox, stretching across the Nintendo Game Boy, Nintendo Super Famicom and Sony PlayStation.
The symbols that appear on floating balls in the attract mode are Siddham, a writing system used in Japan for writing Buddhist mantras and sutras in Sanskrit.
