Pros: Crisp, taut gameplay, throat cutting, rooftop hopping fun to no end Cons: Aging graphics, some clipping and obstruction problems The Bottom Line: An excellent game, within it's limitations. One of the greatest PS1 games ever, but it looks aged and primitive next to more advanced titles. from Shopping.com Playing the original Tenchu brought back some pleasant memories of one of the first stealth games in the business. Great story line that is often copied in the sequels because you don't fix it, if it aint broken. from Amazon.com Tenchu: Stealth assassin - Circa from Amazon.com I was brought into the Tenchu series with Wrath of Heaven (not a great place to start...), but after renting and eventualy buying the third Tenchu instalment, I made it a point to track down the originals. I'm writing this review in 2005, a time of Metal Gear Solids, online Splinter Cells, and innovative Hitman games. from Amazon.com The first Tenchu to come out (which is the reason why there isn't a number behind Tenchu) and the first Tenchu I have ever played, also the Tenchu that forced me to fall in love with the series. When I first played the game it was love at first sight, no one-night stand here, this one's a keeper. from Amazon.com I've played a few so-called Ninja games, but nothing comes close to the strategic adventure of Tenchu. This is my favorite PSX game, along with the original Metal Gear Solid. from Amazon.com I am a latecomer to Tenchu. Since it is a PS1 game its graphics really show the PS1's age against the PS2. from Amazon.com Why? This game is an older generation game (PS1), but it is better than some PS2 games I have played that only advertise graphics but have poor gameplay or short game time. Tenchu is a satisfying game that lets you creep around, slice necks from behind, and hide out on rooftops. You will avenge the death of a crooked merchant, rescue a captive nijna, save a princess, destroy a fiendish cult, stop the spanish pirates, and fight a big boss with a bigger sword. from Amazon.com Based on just a paragraph's worth of review, I tracked down the import version of this game on the off chance that it (like several other games) might not see domestic distribution. I also had the Japanese chip installed in my PSX just to play it. While not being able to read the instructions, I still had an awesome time slinking and skulking around the feudal setting of Tenchu. Imagine my delight when this game was released here with minor screen changes but the same incredible action. from Amazon.com ... I found another ninja game called "Tenchu: Stealth Assassin". I read the back of it and it looked pretty good. from Amazon.com
