Reception

Akane the Kunoichi was met with mostly favourable critical reception, including being a finalist at Dream Build Play 2012 in the Windows Phone category.[6] Game Informer described the Xbox 360 version as a "fine" example of an "old-school platformer" for "one measly dollar".[7] Daniel Douvris of AppAdvice commented on the iOS version of the game: "Akane the Kunoichi is a fun action platformer. Its platforming elements, as well as its artwork, are reminiscent of retro games of the past. Put simply, it is a breath of fresh air from the endless piles of junk that line the App Store these days."[8]
