I-Ninja is a 3D platformer developed by British studio Argonaut Games and released in 2003 for PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, and PC. Players control a young ninja dressed in a blue suit and hooded mask, dual-wielding katana blades through a variety of indoor and outdoor environments. Combat involves slicing through enemies while navigating platforming challenges across dynamic stages. The game draws on cel-shaded visuals to establish a cartoon aesthetic that sets it apart from many contemporaries in the genre. Beyond standard platforming, the titular ninja can scale vertical surfaces, grind along rails, glide using a spinning sword technique, and maneuver atop rolling spheres, giving the movement system considerable variety. Stylized manga-influenced combat moves round out the ninja's toolkit. The overall presentation blends action-oriented traversal with an irreverent, energetic tone.
