This is not an app for everyone, but it's a curious game to try, a small adventure with an endearing character as a companion. ...an entertaining game where you will get to discover new locations and items and meet new characters along the way.

- It’s difficult to describe the appeal of this type of gameplay experience. It’s the kind of game you can talk to people about, and have interesting stories to share about what they see and experience in the game. I have a feeling this is a game people will be talking about for a very long time.
- 8.0Clumsy Ninja is a solid simulator that really shows off some impressive character personality and animation. Maybe Ninja will graduate to a full-blown game someday. In the meantime, we should at least be glad we don’t have to clean up after him.
- 8.0The most impressive part of the gameplay comes in the form of various punching bags that you hold up by the string and move around the Ninja as he learns to gauge his punches and kicks without falling over, which he will do less and less the more that you train him.NaturalMotion has created something very impressive and they clearly want to show off their little Ninja and what he can do.
- 8.0The only real problem with any of this is that jumping in and out of the game can be a little tiresome since it does take a while to load, at least on the 4S. Overall, Clumsy Ninja is a fun, casual experience with a really neat physics engine. Despite the simplicity, the game has enough charm to keep players on the hook for more.
- 7.0One final note on the presentation - it's ace. The music, visuals, and animation are all excellent, though it takes a little bit of time to get used to the UI design. The developer has done a superb job of capturing the atmosphere of a training ground: its natural colours and textures, and its serene soundscape punctuated by the occasional chi shout.
