About Pocket Ninja Cluiche

Is cluiche beag é Pocket Ninja a dhear le haghaidh oiliúint scile agus déaslámhachta. Tomhaiseann an cluiche 70 milimheadar agus luíonn sé i bpóca, mar sin is féidir é a úsáid sa bhaile, sa ghiomnáisiam nó agus tú ag taisteal. Tagann Pocket Ninja gan a chur le chéile, agus tógann na himreoirí an cluiche as na píosaí a chuirtear ar fáil agus an lámhleabhar, mar mhistéir thrídhimeansiúnach. Tacaíonn na hanlaí múnlaithe le cleachtadh ar a dtugtar DYNOs, ina gcaitear agus ina mbeirtear an cluiche le dhá mhéar agus an t-anlann á athrú ag an am céanna. Táirgtear an cluiche san Iodáil trí mhúnlú instealltach.
