Test your reflexes and strategy in N Game — a fast-paced ninja platformer where every second counts. Dodge traps, collect gold, and race against time!

N Game is a lightning-fast, ultra-challenging platformer where you play as a hyper-agile stick figure ninja with a very limited lifespan—just 15 minutes to complete a series of deadly levels. Originally developed by Metanet Software, N combines the physics-based platforming of Lode Runner with the high-stakes tension of modern puzzle games.

How to Play

The objective is simple — activate the button, open the door, and get to the exit. But the path to victory is filled with deadly traps, impossible jumps, and intense split-second decisions. You’ll be wall-jumping, sliding, and sprinting your way through a gauntlet of traps, robots, lasers, and missiles — all while racing against the clock. Collect gold along the way to extend your timer — every piece buys you more precious seconds to survive. Waste too much time, and it's game over — no matter how skilled you are.
