A shuffled deck of silly dexterity trials crowns the sharpest ninja apprentice.
Who it's for
Groups that want a boisterous, hands-on party game with lots of shouting and short attention spans.
Not for you ifβ¦
You're looking for strategic depth or a game that rewards planning over reflexes.
Vibe's take
Loud, physical, and over almost as soon as it starts; trials last seconds, so the table is a blur of hands and laughter rather than careful planning.
Ninja Academy throws a group of ninja apprentices into a rapid-fire series of dexterity trials and head-to-head duels. Challenges are drawn at random: balance wooden logs, guess a hidden count, race to place meeples on your fingertips, and only the sharpest reflexes win the round.
