Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.

The parents' guide to what's in this app.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that NINJATOWN: TREES OF DOOM is, despite being a ninja game, a cute old-school arcade game with little in the way of violence. It's about climbing trees (even if those trees contain monsters and other hazards). The main thing parents need to be aware of is the game's optional connection to the Plus+ online community. Be aware that if kids sign up for Plus+, they will be able to send and receive messages from people they've friended through that community.

Is It Any Good?

Many mobile game apps are one-trick ponies, and Ninjatown: Trees of Doom appears that way on the surface. It's just about climbing trees and seeing how high you can get before hitting and obstacle and falling. But there enough variety among those obstacles to always keep you on your toes. As you try to avoid monsters, slime, and bald spots, you hop back and forth between trees, bounce off mushrooms, swing from branches, leap to grab power-ups, and so on. It's classic arcade-style gameplay with appealingly cute characters (and that even goes for the monsters).
