Red Ninja: End of Honor is an action-adventure game developed by Tranji Studios, released in 2005 for Xbox and PlayStation 2. Set in feudal Japan during a period of political upheaval, the game follows Kurenai, a female ninja driven by the desire to avenge her father's murder at the hands of the Black Lizard Clan. Her primary weapon is the tetsugen, a versatile wire-based tool capable of decapitating enemies or suspending them from overhead structures, with its lethality determined by attachments, wire length, and tension. Gameplay incorporates a range of tactical options beyond direct combat, including the use of disguises, social manipulation, and Ninjutsu abilities to outmaneuver opponents. The story unfolds against a backdrop of the declining samurai class, with ninja operatives filling the resulting void in Japanese political and military life.
