Jump to collect coins and hit the enemies with the giant rock. Watch out for enemies at different elevations and make sure to jump at the right time.

Ninjutsu: The Art of Rapids Controls and Tips

Wall Jump

You can jump off walls by jumping on them and then pressing the button again. Jumping from wall to wall lets you reach higher platforms. Additionally, jumping and sticking to a wall lets you slide down the wall slowly.

Wall Hide Technique

Push up on the L Stick until you're against the wall. Ninja Peach should automatically disguise herself by holding up a rectangular object that reflects the wall behind her.

While disguised, enemies will not be able to spot Peach. However, coming into direct contact with an enemy will break the disguise.

How to Do the Wall Hide Technique

Dash Attacks

You can use your attack to move around faster or even dash in the air. This is handy for dodging patrols and also as extra movement to reach platforms.

Stone Lamps as Platforms

Remember that you can jump on the stone lamps to get to places that are too high for you to jump. This is useful to get to some of the sparkle gems and hidden spots.
