This game is known as Shadow of the Ninja in the USA.

In this game, jumping and slashing is faster than regular running.

Note: This movie was played in NTSC mode, even though the game is a PAL game. Therefore, the AVI plays 16.7% too fast. The real completion time should be 12:03, not 10:02. But even noting that, this is an improvement of almost two minutes over the previous movie by Exim.
