Run, jump and throw shurikens as a tiny ninja
A pint-sized ninja with a big head and a pouch of shurikens headlines Chibi Hero, a side-scrolling platformer. You run right through each stage, leap gaps, dodge traps and deal with the monsters in the way, either by bouncing on them or with your attack. Stars and coins are scattered along the route, so reaching the exit is only half the job.
How to play Chibi Hero
- Head right through each stage, jumping over gaps and around traps.
- Beat enemies by landing on them or by throwing shurikens, keeping an eye on the supply counter at the top.
- Collect coins for points and hunt down the three stars hidden in each level, tracked by the star counter.
- Reach the end of the stage to clear it and move on to the next.

Tips to play better
- Shurikens are limited, so stomp the easy enemies and save throws for the ones that are risky to land on.
- Stop at the edge of wide gaps and line up the jump rather than taking it at a sprint.
- Coins pad your score, but never chase one into a pit or a trap.
- Missed a star? Come back to that level once you know its layout and collect the full set.
