A ninja beat ’em up about recovering stolen secret documents

The briefing

About this game

In Kendo Warrior, you control Kendo on a mission to recover stolen secret documents. Fight guards and large dogs with a sword, kicks, and forward-rolls as you make your way through the enemy facility.

Colored particle beams block your route, requiring shields that match each beam. Shields are exhausted after use, so you must find replacements. A pipe wrench and wire-cutters can also aid your progress.

The documents are stored in a safe that must be opened with a code. After retrieving them, reach the roof and escape by helicopter to complete the mission.
