## About Super House of Dead Ninjas

Super House of Dead Ninjas is a 2013 action indie title developed by Megadev and published by Bitmap Bureau. Players descend procedurally generated tower floors using combo-based combat, unlockable abilities, and a progression chain of ninja weaponry. Reviewers highlight the fast-paced arcade action that demands mastery, with speedrun scoring encouraging repeated attempts. Players describe the intense, challenging experience as feeling fresh with every run, and the pixel-art and soundtrack nail retro vibes according to those who have played it. Free user-made maps expand the available content beyond the core tower descent. The game holds a 97% positive rating from over 1,000 Steam reviews, runs at a medium length in short bursts, and is playable on Steam Deck at $19.99.
