Ninja Saga: the turn-based ninja RPG from Facebook, as a browser edition

Ninja Saga is a turn-based ninja RPG by Emagist that was born on Facebook: you create a ninja, pick one of five elements, take on missions and upgrade your gear. Yes, you can play it today in this independent FB Games edition, which opens in your browser with no Flash, is free and asks for an account of your own. You do not need Facebook. This guide explains what the game is, what this edition is and is not, what language it uses and what is not available yet, because it is a beta.

What is Ninja Saga?

Ninja Saga is a turn-based role-playing game about ninjas, made by Emagist and born on Facebook. You build one character and grow it mission by mission: you pick a name and a look, choose an element (wind, fire, lightning, earth or water), win turn-based battles, collect experience and gold, level up, and buy and equip weapons and other items.

It is a game about a single ninja getting stronger, not about running a village or moving an army.

Can you play Ninja Saga today?

Yes. FB Games runs an independent browser edition of Ninja Saga at ninjasaga.fbgamesweb.com. That is the one site for this edition: the home page, the guide, support, donations, terms, privacy policy and legal notice all live there, and the FB Games hub has its own page for the game.

This guide makes no claims about the original game's status and covers only the FB Games edition. You do not need Facebook, and progress from the Facebook game is not imported, so everybody starts with a brand-new ninja.

What is this edition of Ninja Saga, and what is it not?

It is a free, fan-made beta that runs on an FB Games server of its own, with accounts separate from those of the project's other games. An account of your own is required, and you create it on the website with a username, an email and a password.

It is not the official site and has no affiliation with Emagist, Facebook or Meta. Names, characters and artwork belong to their owners; the pictures on the website are screenshots and elements from the game itself.

What language is Ninja Saga in, and how far can you go?

The game itself is in English only: menus, missions, weapons and skills carry their English names. The FB Games website, with your account, support and guides, comes in Spanish and English, with a language selector.

The level cap is 20. Every ninja starts as a Genin, rank promotions are not available and each account has a single character. Those are rules set by this edition, not presented as identical to the original's.

What is not available yet?

This is a beta: the basics work (creating your ninja, missions, turn-based battles, the shop and gear), but other parts of the original game are not available yet and bugs may appear. The village shows buttons for things like player-versus-player battles, clans and crews, pets, talents, Senjutsu, events, friends and team. None of them is available yet or has been tested thoroughly.

If something breaks, open a ticket in Support, from the website or from the game, with a screenshot if you can.
