Ninja Box

''This page is about the enemy. You may be looking for the species.''

The Ninja Box is an enemy in the Red Ball 4 series. It is the 3rd type of enemy found, and is exclusive to Episode 2.

Appearance
The Ninja Box is a rounded grey square with orange eyes and a wide mouth, it wears a red headband and has two katanas strapped to it's back, similar to a samurai.

Behavior
The Ninja Box, aside from being able to move basically left to right, has the ability to jump high in the air every few seconds; this makes it harder to kill than a normal box, because its jump height is the same as the Player's.

Ninja Boxes have 2 health points, meaning they have to be hit from above two times; when a Ninja Box is hit in mid-air, it will fall to the ground, starting its jump cycle again.

Strategy
Due to the Ninja Box having the ability to jump just as high as the player, it is recommended to attack it only when it is close to the ground, as doing otherwise will risk the ninja box hitting the player, doing 1 damage in the process.

Spawning
Ninja Boxes spawn naturally in almost all of the levels in Episode 2, and can also be spawned in by Box Doors.

Trivia

 * The Ninja Box is the only enemy in the game (excluding Bosses) able to jump in the air, as other boxes can only move sideways.


 * In the mobile version of the game, Ninja Boxes will play the growling animation before jumping.


 * Despite having 2 health points, Ninja Boxes can still be one-shot by falling objects and other hazards.
