In this episode, we deal with demon dogs for a third time, waterfalls and a whole squad of guys who just want to run into you because they can.
Act 3
3-1
Well, here's a slight variation in the whole Ninja Gaiden formula. We're going left instead of right.
As you jump from platform to platform and climb on vines in this jungle, you'll be taking on fish, robots, and flying things that all want you dead.
3-2
As you go down the waterfalls, you'll be dealing with enemy ninjas and those little spiked ball things from the volcanic segments of Act 2. The pulsating things that throb like beating hearts spit fireballs out like volcanoes.
You'll then be dealing with guys with guns and bugs that act just like the ever-popular Ninja Gaiden Birds before climbing up walls. Welcome to Paradise.
The Flame Shield makes a big difference here. If you die in the middle of a section, you get sent back to part A.
When you get the Sword Extension power-up for this act, you'd better be ready to turn back and destroy that bug that wants to divebomb you.
...
Good lord, those guys that rush across the screen file out in droves.
3-3
The boss is just like the demon dog statues from the first two games. Only one of them actually takes damage. When they jump three times, they toss shurikens that home in on your current position at the time they are thrown. As long as you don't touch them and move around so the shurikens don't hit you, you should definitely be okay.
After you beat the boss (which is probably the hardest one outside of the final fight), you'll meet up with the fake Ryu. He is the one who did away with Irene, and he's working for Foster. He'll wait for you at the Castle Rock fortress.
