Goemon (Kid Ying) and Ebisu-Maru (Dr. Yang) are enjoying themselves at home, when they hear about strange spirits sighted at the temple and taking control of the other villagers. Concerned, that a new evil has appeared, the two set out to confront it at the temple. This is just the beginning of a new adventure that will take them Goemon and his partner all across Japan; into moutain villages, amusement parks, castle fortresses and more! Players control either Goemon or his partner Ebisu-Maru (or both, in 2 player mode). They sequentially travel through adventure-type villages and side-scrolling jump and run action stages. In the overhead-view villages, enemies must be defeated in order to earn money and other items (which include a weapon-enhancing lucky cat and mystical scrolls). The player is able to attack with their primary weapon and jump. Throwing weapons can also be used, which consume money for each one thrown. Attacking innocent villagers will cause the player to lose money. Money can also be gained (or lost) by visiting one of the numerous mini games, often in houses: which include mazes, whack-a-mole, the lottery, dice, a 3D labyrinth and a game trivia quiz show. Other businesses such as shops, resturants, inns and judo training can also be visited. At the end of each village is an "action area" which changes the game in a complete side-scroller. One or both players can enter this place, filled with obstacles, traps, enemies and a boss creature. In addition to the regular moves used in town, players also gain the ability to unleash one of four special attacks for each character (if bought beforehand at the judo training center). These consume the scrolls collected in order to use. Additionally, in a 2 player game, characters can ride piggy-back on one another, to avoid getting stuck by a scrolling screen.

WE ZEGEWOF
THE TRUE STRENGTH OF A MYSTICAL NINJA IS HIS WISDOM.
A curse has stricken the village of Horo-Horo. Their beloved princess has
vanished. And without her powers, a plague of giant locusts will ravage the helpless.
Talk about sick!
All hope rests on the village's two ninja guardians, Kid Ying and Dr. Yang. Ying is
a daring young mystical ninja who often rips apart opponents while riding a
psychedelic tiger. Yang is his all-powerful mentor and master of the invincible spirit
transformation. Together they must overcome ten Levels of the Dragonbeast, until
they find the princess or die trying.
With double Warlock Stages in most levels and intense 3D and 2D zones blasting
savage stereo sound effects, you'll be challenged to perform dozens of attack moves
and solve magical problems before advancing. And talk about enemies! There's the
Carp Meister, who stuns victims with poisonous fighting fish; Tanaka-U-0ut, a
knock out artist who wallops opponents with a bone crushing hammer; and the
Sumo Tag Team, kings of the unbeatable belly buster crunch.
All-powerful sinjin items like the fire staff must also be captured. And if you fail to
collect gold coins from defeated foes you won't receive important clues from the
Fortune Palace and Char Cheddar Sushi Joint, or be allowed to go tor broke at
"hidden risk" areas such as the Quiz House and Horse Races.
But that's only the tip of the volcano. Which is why your ultimate strength must
come not from your might, but from your mind.
