Sushi Ninja

Slide your wooden chest like a ninja, catch falling sushi, and dodge wasabi bombs before they end your run.

Your chest is your only weapon here. Slide it left and right to catch sushi pieces raining from the top — tuna rolls, salmon nigiri, little tamago squares. Missing sushi isn't the end, but it costs you. And beware the wasabi bombs mixed in. One wrong catch and the run is over. What got me hooked was the rhythm. At first the pieces fall slow, two or three at a time, and you think you've got this. Then the screen fills with a mix of good sushi and deadly wasabi, and you're frantically prioritizing which ones to let go. The hitbox on the chest feels fair, but it punishes half-hearted movement. I kept coming back after each death because the next run feels winnable — just one more try. The art is simple but clean, with bright sushi colors against a dark background, so you can read the falling items at a glance. Sound effects are juicy enough to make a catch satisfying. It's the kind of arcade game that respects your time: no menus to fight through, just click and go. If you like Fruit Ninja but want something with less swiping and more careful positioning, this scratches that itch perfectly.

[ Mouse ] - To move the chest and to interact with the menu.

Keep the chest slightly off-center when sushi falls in groups; you can't catch everything so grab the highest-value pieces first. Wasabi bombs have a distinct green blob — learn to spot them from the corner of your eye. Golden sushi gives bigger points but often falls faster; don't sacrifice a safe catch for it. Use the edges: the chest stops at the wall so you can't overshoot, but you also can't catch anything outside that line. If a bomb and a good piece fall together, dodge both instead of trying to thread the needle.
