🎮 Play Last Ninja, The Online (DOS)

Take on the role of Armakuni, the sole survivor of his clan, in The Last Ninja. Released for DOS by System 3 in 1987, this classic action-adventure game tasks you with infiltrating the island of Lin Fen to assassinate the evil shogun Kunitoki. Gameplay combines isometric exploration, environmental puzzle-solving, and martial arts combat.

How to play

You must navigate the island’s isometric screens, collecting weapons and items needed to bypass hazards and defeat Kunitoki’s guards. Combat involves switching between unarmed strikes and weapons like swords, nunchaku, and shurikens.

Tips

Precision is critical during the isometric jumping sections, so take advantage of the emulator’s save slots before attempting a difficult leap across water or gaps. Additionally, remember that you often need to manually select and hold the correct item from your inventory to solve environmental puzzles or bypass obstacles.
