The ninja’s playtime games are too rough-and-tumble for his friends the cowboy and the bear. The ninja isn’t interested in his friends’ games — and playing all by himself isn’t much fun. Can the rambunctious ninja ever meet his friends halfway?

“The simple message of the plusses of cooperative play will be embraced by audiences who are likely still playing the hand game featured in the first adventure.”
