Those problems aside, though, the game is still fun to play. The overworld feels like a traditional RPG, right down to the music that plays, which is a bit of a treat. Talking to characters sometimes reveals voice clips from the original voice actors, and exploring to find items is fun as well. When I finished the game, my game timer said 10 hours 30 minutes, which feels a bit short but wasn’t too problematic; I get the sense they’re gearing up for a sequel. Overall, I have to give Naruto: Path of the Ninja a Yay! for a great combat system and thus an overall enjoyable experience. If you’re a Naruto fan, I would recommend picking it up, but even if you’re not, you may find something in here for you.
