Gameplay

Players fight through 2D levels with Naruto, Sasuke, or Sakura, unlocking Rock Lee along the way, swapping between characters on the fly with each keeping a separate health bar. Combat runs on repeated button attacks layered with jutsu inputs, and every character carries three distinct jutsu sets. Double jumps and short range teleports open up traversal, and dedicated speed challenge stages task players with collecting leaf symbols before time runs out.
