Before I begin, I’ll tell you straight away that I can’t get on CP at the moment, so I can’t get any pictures. I might have to “steal” some off the internet… :O

Ok, I feel like doing it in FAQ style, so here it comes:

How do you become a ninja?

To become a ninja you have to pass the special ninja training. Go to the Dojo (not the Dojo courtyard, but the actual Dojo…) and speak to the Sensei – the funny grey guy at the right of the Dojo on his little chair thingo. Click on him to walk over there and he’ll explain to you all about the ninja training. Then play against other penguins of similar level in Competition Mode and the more you win, the more belts you’ll get. Once you’re on the black belt (the highest one) play against the Sensei (he’s VERY hard!!) and if you win, you will be granted the position of a ninja. It isn’t an easy process, that’s for sure – it may take you quite a while before you’re up there in the ninja squad!

How do you play the game?

It’s quite tricky to get used to at first, but once you get the hang of it, the game is actually quite easy, but also challenging at the same time as you play against other penguins. The aim is to win three cards, either:

• Three of the same type (e.g. three ice, three fire or three water) They all must be different colours
• Three of different types (e.g. one fire, one ice and one water). They all must be different colours.

To do this, you have to put up cards and try and beat the other person’s. Here are the combinations:

• Fire defeats ice
• Water defeats fire
•  Ice defeats

For example, if you put up fire, and the other person puts up ice, you will win. But if they put up water, you lose. The winner gets to keep their card.

If both people put up the same card type, the one with the highest number wins.

What are the cards with the funny border?

You mean the special ones that have wobbly borders? Often they have a number 10 on them? Oh I forgot about them. If you play one of those cards, because it is a high number, the next round will be low numbers winning. E.g. if you put up the special card and then the next round, put up a six ice, and the other person puts up a three ice, they will win, because for one round, the winner will have the lowest card. This only happens if the same card type is put up by both players.

Can I still play if I haven’t bought those trading cards?

Of course you can play – I don’t have the trading cards either, only virtual ones. The sensei gives you a starters pack even if you don’t have the trading cards, so you can play no matter what. The trading cards can just help you to get to ninjahood quicker!

What are the order of the belts?

If you ever forget the order of the belts, you will see a sign up in the Dojo. Otherwise, here it is, from lowest to highest:

• White
• Yellow
• Orange
• Green
• Blue
• Red
• Purple
• Brown
• Black
• Ninja

Please correct me if I got any of those wrong…

What do all of those modes mean?

There are three modes that you can play on. Here they are:

• Friendly mode: Walk over to one of those blue mats sitting around the Dojo and play against a friend. You can’t win belts by this, I don’t think, but it’s just there if you want to play against a friend or show off your fabulous skills!
• Competition mode: This is the mode where you get your belts! The sensei will match you up with a current player of similar belt level, and you will play against each other. You’ll have to win five times before you will be awarded the belt.
• Sensei mode: Play against the pro! It’s VERY hard! If you ask me, it’s almost impossible to win, unless you’re on the black belt. Only when you do have the black belt will the win against the Sensei win or will you be able to become a ninja.

Hint about beating the Sensei: Keep playing him throughout your training, even if you don’t win – the more you play him, the weaker he gets. You can only beat him if you have the black belt.

What’s so good about being a ninja?

When you become a ninja, well, it’s quite a privelege. You’ll be able to turn invisable, have access to exclusive ninjas only things and have an awesome outfit. But that’s only a few of the great things you’ll be able to do once you become a ninja – I don’t want to ruin the surprise for you! All I can say is that, all the hard work is worth it!

So good luck ninjas!!
