~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1. Introduction~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
===============================================================================

Hello and welcome to my Cyber Shinobi Faq, Cyber Shinobi is one of the lesser
known Shinobi games released in the beginning of the nineties. Where the normal
Shinobi games are usually located in the past Cyber Shinobi goes into the far
future, 2XXX to be exact. This time you play the role of Joe Musashi and you
will have to defeat the ZEED army again, something that whole armys couldn't
do. The game is lot easier than most Shinobi games but is still pretty tough
because of the range of Joe sword, to make up for that you will get some other
weapons like grenades and a gun. All in all it's a pretty good game but a bit
on the short side.

===============================================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2. Story~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
===============================================================================

Cyber Zeed - the villains who previously tried to destroy the world - are back!
Zeed's army is stealing plutonium from the power plants. Their goal is to melt
down this planet ! All the world's nations joined forces in an attempt to put
an end to this chaos. Thousands of troops were sent out, but none of them was
successful. Then Joe Musashi appeared - the grandson of the brave ninja who had
defeated Cyber Zeed years ago. Joe's the only one who can use the four types of
Ninjutsu - Fire, Tornado, Lightning and Earth Element. He's the only hope ! Be
Joe Musashi and wipe out Cyber Zeed for good !

===============================================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~3. Controls~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
===============================================================================

Button 1      -  When you press the B button Joe will jump up.

Button 2      -  When you press the A button Joe will swing his sword, this is
                the standard short range attack and you can use it to kill
                enemies that are close by.

Pause         -  Pause/unpause the game

D-Pad         -  Use the D-pad to move in different directions. You can also
                crawl by pressing the down and right button, this can come
                in handy when facing enemies that have guns and enemies that
                are throwing stars.

Button 1 + Up -  Press this to make Shinobi jump higher, this is useful for
                jumping over the enemies in the later levels, like astronauts.
                You also have to use this to get on top of very high stacked
                crates.

Button 1 + 2  -  Press this to use your ninjutsu, when you use the ninjistu
                Joe will call up elementals to get rid of all the enemies on
                the screen, this also works for weakening/killing bosses.
                When used it will cost you a point of your ninjitsu.

Button 2 + Up -  Press this to use your alternate weapon, this is useful for
                when the enemies are very far away and you have a hard time
                getting close to them. When used it will cost you a point of
                your shot.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
----------
1 LIFE (L)
----------

Picking up the L will get you another part of health, if you still have all of
your health than you'll get an extra life.

-----------
2 POWER (P)
-----------

Picking up a P will make you a bit stronger, thus meaning that some enemies
will take less punches to take down, this is mostly only good for the level
that you got in because the level after that will have tougher enemies. You
can grab 8 P's before you're at your strongest and the P meter is displayed
under the screen on the left, you'll lose everything when your game is over.

--------------
5 N (Ninjutsu)
--------------

The Ninjustu is the savoir in need when you're getting your ass kicked and you
need to get rid of all the enemies around you. The more N's you collect the
stronger it will become (4), because the ninjutsu can run out you need to use
it in situations where you really need it (although you probably will press 1+2
on accident a few times :))

----------
7 S (SHOT)
----------

The S will give you either a grenade, a shuriken or a gun. The shuriken is the
first weapon that you will get and it's pretty powerful, you'll throw the
shuriken in a straight line towards the enemy and it's quite handy when taking
out the gunners standing on the other side of a crate. You get the gun if you
still have some shuriken left and pick up the S, its the weakest of the three,
when you fire it it will launch a few bullets in rapid fire but barely does any
damage. You get the grenade if you have the gun and pick up a S, the grenade is
quite powerful as well and can take out big groups of enemies from a small
distance. All weapons will have ammo that can run out but when you pick up a new
S when you have a grenade than you'll get all of your grenades back.

===============================================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~5. Walkthrough~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
===============================================================================

**************************************
Round 1: Construction site - Time: 10m
**************************************

You start out at a construction site at night where you'll have to fight hordes
of ninjas and cyborgs before getting to the boss. Go forward and jump onto the
crates where you'll be attacked by four green tugs, the tugs won't be much of a
problem, just hit them three time to take them out. After you've beaten them
walk further and four more green tugs will come out of nowhere to attack you.
Kill them all and then get rid of the grey cyborgs that are standing on the
crates, be careful for the bullets they're fireing though and then take them
down with one hit.

The above cyborg is standing on the other side of the crate and is a bit harder
to kill because Shinobi moves quite slow, because you don't have a weapon yet
you'll just have to time your moves right and jump on the crate quickly to kill
him. After you've killed him go down carefully and kill the other grey cyborg
standing on the crates. After that four more green tugs will show up again,
take them all out and go forward.

Now you'll see a yellow elevator going up and down, walk onto it when it is at
it's lowest and duck, when you reach the middle go to the right while ducking
and kill the grey cyborg with a fast kick. After that open the box and take the
P for more power. You can hear the grey cyborgs firing there guns below you but
there isn't an easy way to go down without getting shot, the best thing to do
is to go down quick and take out the ninja on the ground first.

Once you've gotten rid of the ninja on the ground grab the L that's inside the
box to get some of your health back. Now move up and kill the grey cyborgs one
by one and open all the boxes for ninjutsu, a shiruken (S) and another ninjutsu,
the last ninja can be killed without having to jump next to it. Now go forward
again but keep on ducking so you won't get shot by the cyborg standing on top of
the crate, than go down after they both fired and kill them. Press up and high
jump to get on top of the crates and kill the grey cyborg with your shuriken.

Wait until the grey cyborg has fired and then jump off the crates, than four
green tugs will show up, this time you can kill them in two hits now that you
have the P power-up. After you've killed them you can move further again, so
high jump onto the crate and kill the grey cyborg with a shiruken. Now jump onto
the conveyer belt and go to the right, quickly kill the grey cyborg and go
further, if you fall off the conveyer belt be careful not to stand too long on
some parts of the ground because they'll collapse.

At the end of the level quickly go onto the yellow elevator and it'll take you
up. Once it stops go to the right, you'll have to kill all the enemies as usual
to go further. You will have to be quick to kill the grey cyborgs so attack them
right after they shoot. After you've killed them all take the S from the box and
go back to the elevator, after the elevator stopped again go to the right and
quickly get rid of the ninja on the ground (you'll probable get hit anyway).
Then get rid of the rest of the cyborgs and get the health that is inside the
box.

The next floor only has one grey cyborg and a ninjutsu, duck when you enter the
next floor to avoid the bullets, after that get rid of the grey cyborgs again,
and the floor after that will have two green tugs and some extra life in a box.
The floor above that is the last floor and will have two more grey cyborgs
ducking on the ground so you'll have to be fast again, after you've killed them
walk over to the right and you'll fall down towards the first boss.

**************************************
Boss: Crazy Bull - Weak point: Cockpit
**************************************

The boss will enter the screen from the right every once in a while, try not to
get hit by the front but instead high jump onto the truck and kick against the
cockpit. After you've hit it the truck will go back out of the screen and it
will return a little bit later to attack again in the same way. Then attack it
ten more times until you've destroyed it.

****************************
Round 2: Harbor - Time: 10 m
****************************

When the level starts walk a bit forward and you'll be attacked by two angry
red ninjas, they don't do anything different than the green tugs except that
they can take 3 hits before dying. After you've killed them walk a bit further
and you'll be attacked by a two shuriken throwing ninjas,immediately duck to
avoid the stars and kill them. After that two more red ninjas will show up,
kill them and the grey cyborg and take the grenade from the box.

Kill the grey ninja that is coming at you and kill the two grey cyborgs standing
a bit further with a your alternate weapon. After you've gotten rid of them walk
forward and get rid of another two grey ninja's, if you're wounded than get the
L from the box and continue. Stop when the red ninja's attack you and kill them,
now go forward and get rid of the grey ninja first (preferably with the grenade)
, than kill the last two red ninjas and get off the crates.

Once your off the green crates the grey ninjas can't hurt you anymore so you can
stand normally here, first get rid of the ninjas that are coming from all the
sides and then kill the ones sitting on the crates. Quickly get rid of the one
standing on the other side of the crate and then kill the other ones standing
towards the right one by one by kicking them in the back.

After that its time to fight some more red ninjas, after you've killed four of
them move further and jump onto the green crates. If you still have one then
use the grenade to kill the grey cyborg sitting on top of the crate, after
you've killed him get the ninjitsu and go further. Here you must watch out for
the collapsing floor again, try to stand only on the parts where the green
beams are under or quickly walk over the ones that don't. There are two grey
ninjas on the other side shooting at you, kill them with an altenate weapon and
if you don't have that anymore than quickly make your way towards them and kill
them.

Get the grenade that's inside of the box and jump off the crates, than kill the
red ninjas that are attacking you and kill the two grey cyborgs with the grenade
if you have it. After that open up the box that contains some health and get it,
you'll be attacked again by two red ninjas, take them out and kill the grey
cyborgs above you with another grenade. Get the ninjistu and kill two more red
ninjas, also kill the grey cyborgs again and get the P from the box. Than walk
carefully to the right because two of the crates will collapse, after that exit
the screen on the right.

Immediately duck when you enter the next screen to avoid getting shot, here will
be collapsing crates as well so be a bit careful. Highjump over the bullets from
the cyborg and then kill him, and do the same to the next cyborg. Jump over the
shots from the next cyborg and than kill him quickly before the crate falls
down, do this by the next 3 cyborgs or use grenades if you have them. After
getting off the crates more red ninjas will attack, if you have two P power-ups
than you can kill them in two hits. After killing six of them get on the crates
and get rid of the grey cyborgs, walk a bit forward and more grey ninjas will
show up, kill them all and kill the cyborg on the other side of the crate with
a alternate weapon.

Go a bit further and some more red and grey ninjas will show up, when you've
taken care of them walk further and kill four more red ninjas plus the grey
cyborgs on the crates. Once you've done that climb on top of the crates and go
further, quickly walk over the red bridge because parts of it will fall down.
Kill the grey cyborg and go further again, then take out the red ninja and stand
on the small part in the middle, the part will fall down and you'll have to kill
all the ninjas down there, just use ninjutsu if it gets too hard. After getting
rid of them open the box and get the L for some health, then make your way to
the right for the boss fight.

****************************************
Boss: Sea bat - Weak point: Missile deck
****************************************

The parts where the missiles come out is the weak spot, the problem is that you
never know where the sea bat will come up next so you'll just have to stand some
where and hope that it comes up near you. During the fight you do have to be
careful for the missles that they don't fall onto your head but if you keep on
moving after they've been fired you should be alright.

**************************
Round 3: Field - Time: 5 m
**************************

The level starts with a helicopter dropping bombs on the ground, the bombs will
burst into huge flames which you can only avoid by high jumping over it. Move to
the right while jumping over the fire, don't try to attack the chopper though
because you can't destroy it yet anyway. After the plane stops moving it will
still drop a few bombs, jump over the last few and then it will fly away. Now
go to the right and two astronauts will attack you, they will come from both
sides so the best thing to do is just to wait until they get close and then
high jump over them both.

After that open the box for an L and than go forward, kill the two green tugs
and open the box for an ninjutsu. Now a astronaut and another green tug will
show up, kill them both and go to the right. Two more astronauts will show up,
jump over them again and open the box for a grenade, after that open the box
for an N and kill the green ninja and astronaut. Get a P from the box on the
right and jump over the last two astronauts, now get what's inside the last
box and exit.

***************************************
Boss: Heli blast - Weakness : Nose cone
***************************************

It's the helicopter from the beginning again and it does the same thing again,
dropping bombs. This time you can hurt it though and you can hurt it by hitting
the nose cone, so to kill him wait until he has dropped the bomb and jump over
the fire while hitting the nose.

****************************
Round 4: Jungle - Time: 10 m
****************************

So now your in the jungle, this time there will be more jumping and avoiding
than fighting but it shouldn't be too hard. First make your way forward and
kill the two green tugs, after two red ninjas will attack and then two more
green tugs, kill them all and go forward. Now duck to avoid the shiruken and
kill the grey ninjas. After that boulders will come falling down, avoid them
and keep on moving into the cave, then high jump over the spears that are
hidden in the ground but watch out that when you jump over them they will come
up.

Move forward and you'll see a totem with birds encrypted into them, quickly
move towards it and take it out before it can fire. Now go forward again and
you'll come across a bridge, you can see that the last parts look different,
those are the ones that will fall down when you walk over them, avoid them at
all costs because they'll fall down so quick that you barely have any time to
jump out. After that jump over some more spears and move over the bridge, when
you're in the middle boulders will start falling down again, when avoiding them
keep an eye on the bridge because there are some broken parts.

When you're back in the cave another totem will pop up, quickly destroy it and
than jump over some more spears. Once you're out of the cave more boulders will
start coming down, keep on moving forward and take out the totem that is
blocking your path. In the middle of the spears ninjas will start attacking
you, use your other weapons and/or ninjutsu if it gets too hard, once you've
killed them all go further to the right and try to get over the collapsing
bridge (best to just jump quickly) and you've reached the boss.

************************************
Boss: Blacktiger - Weak point: Body
************************************

This fight is pretty, just walk forward and give the tiger a punch, after you
hit him, he'll bounce out of the screen and will come back later, just move a
bit to the right and quickly punch him everytime he walks at you to kill him.

******************************
Round 5: Waterfall - Time: 3 m
******************************

This is more of a bonus level than a real level, you'll fall down and every
once in a while there are some parts where some boxes are sitting on. I'll
just list where everything remotely is and what you can find there. Do know
that if you do planning on getting everything it's going to cost you a lot of
time.

1.  Left  - 2 (L)
2.  Left  - 1 (L)
3.  Right - 2 (P)
4.  Left  - 1 (S)
5.  Left  - 2 (N)
6.  Left  - 2 (L)
7.  Left  - 1 (L)
8.  Right - 2 (P)
9.  Left  - 1 (S)
10. Left  - 2 (N)

*****************************
Red hopper - Weak point: Body
*****************************

The boss will hop around a bit (hence the name) and that is all he does, just
stand next to him and hit it than wait until he hops next to you again and do
it again until he's destroyed (something that shouldn't last long if you've
picked up most of the P power-ups).

**********************************
Round 6: Enemy Hideout - Time: 5 m
**********************************

This is the last level already of this very short game, time really isn't on
your side so keep on moving. Start by ducking and crawl forward, open the box
for an ninjutsu and kill the two shuriken throwers. Now open the other box and
get the L, after that two red ninjas and two astronauts will attack you, kill
the red ninjas and jump over the astronauts. Open the box for a P and two walls
will start closing in on you, a few hits and they'll be destroyed.

The next part is bit harder, there are a few electric fields which you have to
pass very fast otherwise you'll be electrocuted and that causes a lot of damage.
So move quickly passed it once the electricity goes off and move further. Try to
get behind the big gun because you can't destroy it, and than get rid of the red
ninjas and green tugs. After that move forwards again and get the P from the box
, than get behind the big gun again and kill the grey ninja and green tug.

Now get the N from the box and move further again, kill the red ninja and green
tug and move behind the gun again. The box before the gun contains a S if you
want it, than move forward again and kill the red ninja and jump over the
astronaut, now get the box containing an L if you need it and exit the screen to
fight the last boss.

*************************************
Boss: Psy Gunner - Weak point: Secret
*************************************

Alright, time to fight the last boss, the boss is behind a shield so you can
only hurt it when the shield is isn't there. The shield is gone when the boss
comes at you and than you must kick it. In the meantime he attacks with gunshots
which you can jump over, he'll also stretch his arm which you can avoid by
ducking and the last attack is tossing grenades at you which you can avoid by
jumping a bit. When you've beaten the boss walk over to the motherbrain and
break the capsule in any way you want to finish the game.

===============================================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~6. Enemies~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
===============================================================================

------------
~Grey ninja~
------------

The grey ninjas will attack by throwing shiruken at you, duck to avoid the
shiruken and then crawl towards before attacking.

--------------
~Grey cyborgs~
--------------

These cyborgs will stand on one spot and fire of their guns the whole time,
because they're usually a long distance away it is a good idea to use an
alternate weapon so that you don't have to walk over to there. If you don't
have a weapon than you can crawl to avoid the bullets from the cyborgs that
are standing, or jumping over the ones that are ducking, when you get close
to them give them a punch or a kick and they'll go up in flames.

-----------
~Red ninja~
-----------

Pretty much like the green tug these red ninjas are the basic enemies, once
they get close to you they will try to punch and kick you, just give them
a few quick punches to kill them.

-----------
~Green tug~
-----------

The green tug is the basic enemy in the game, they usually attack in groups
of two but aren't really a problem. When they come close to you they'll try
to punch you but if you're fast enough than you can take them out before
they can attack.

-----------
~Astronaut~
-----------

You will encounter the astronauts in the last few levels, they will float
into the air and than come towards you, if there is only one than you can
try to fight him, he only takes on puch to take out but he's very fast and
will probably hurt you before you can hit him. The best thing to do -even
more when there are two of them- is to high jump over them, then they will
move out of the screen again.

----------
~Boulders~
----------

The Jungle is the only level where you will find the boulders, they will
come falling down every now and then and you can't destroy them, the best
thing to do is to just keep on moving forwards until the shower of boulders
have stopped.

-------
~Totem~
-------

Like the boulders you'll only find the totems in the jungle level, the parts
on it will spin around and will start shooting at you, if you're fast enough
you can get close by them and take the totem down one part by part before the
totem even releases a shot.

------------
~Crazy Bull~
------------

The truck will enter the screen from the right every once in a while, try not
to get hit by the front but instead high jump onto the truck and kick against
the cockpit. After you've hit it the truck will go back out of the screen and
it will return a little bit later to attack again in the same way. Then attack
it ten more times until you've destroyed it.

---------
~Sea bat~
---------

The parts where the missiles come out is the weak spot, the problem is that you
never know where the sea bat will come up next so you'll just have to stand some
where and hope that it comes up near you. During the fight you do have to be
careful for the missiles that they don't fall onto your head but if you keep on
moving after they've been fired you should be alright.

------------
~Heli blast~
------------

It's the helicopter from the beginning again and it does the same thing again,
dropping bombs. This time you can hurt it though and you can hurt it by hitting
the nose cone, so to kill him wait until he has dropped the bomb and jump over
the fire while hitting the nose.

------------
~Blacktiger~
------------

This fight is pretty easy, just walk forward and give the tiger a punch, after
you hit him, he'll bounce out of the screen and will come back later, just move
a bit to the right and quickly punch him everytime he walks at you to kill him.

------------
~Red hopper~
------------

The boss will hop around a bit (hence the name) and that is all he does, just
stand next to him and hit it than wait until he hops next to you again and do
it again until he's destroyed (something that shouldn't last long if you've
picked up most of the P power-ups).

------------
~Psy Gunner~
------------

Alright, time to fight the last boss, the boss is behind a shield so you can
only hurt it when the shield is isn't there. The shield is gone when the boss
comes at you and than you must kick it. In the meantime he attacks with gunshots
which you can jump over, he'll also stretch his arm which you can avoid by
ducking and the last attack is tossing grenades at you which you can avoid by
jumping a bit. When you've beaten the boss walk over to the motherbrain and
break the capsule in any way you want to finish the game.
