How to play Freeze Frame Ninja

The world is frozen while you stand still. Arrows hang in the air, shuriken stop mid-spin and saws wait on their rails. The moment you move, everything moves with you.

That turns every room into a puzzle you solve with your feet. Step, look, step again: read where each arrow and blade is going, then move just enough to slip through the gap and reach the red scroll at the end of the level.

Jumps, dashes and guards

Jump against a wall to wall-jump up narrow shafts. The dash is your sword: it slices through guards and cuts projectiles out of the air, and landing on a guard from above stomps it too.

There are 15 levels, from First Breath and Frozen Arrow to The Tower and Silent Fortress. Grab the scroll quickly for three stars. If you fall, you can watch a short ad to revive right where you were.

Tips and tricks

  • Standing still is always safe. When a room looks impossible, stop and look before you move again.
  • Tiny taps move time a tiny bit, so tap to nudge an arrow past you instead of running.
  • Save the dash for the moment a projectile is right in front of you.
  • For three stars, learn the room first and go for speed on the second try.
