Bowja the Ninja

Robin Vencel at Pencil Kids has created a fine little point 'n' click game. You are Bowja the Ninja, sent to Factory Island to destroy the Gi8000 robot - otherwise know as 'Randy'. All you have to aid you in your mission is your trusty bow and an infinite supply of blunt arrows.

Mr Vencel has made an extremely good-looking game here, which is a joy to play: the colours conjure heady memories of the later Monkey Island games. That said, it is rather too easy and a bit too short, but once you do beat the terrifying 'Randy' you are rewarded with a very 'special' prize. Robin promises the sequel will be longer and harder, and E4 Games is looking forward to it!
