Interestingly, Mini Ninjas borrows ideas from both of IO's recent worlds. You can go in stabby-stabby action style or sneak in like our favourite barcoded baldy. Maybe it's Hiro's dumpy stature, but the action reminds us of the Lego games. Nippy button-hammering is translated by Hiro into mad flourishes, but it's hardly difficult stuff..."
