You can nab Mini Ninjas for free on PC with some convoluted steps

Because why just download it?

Square Enix has a brand new website for you to peruse. To commemorate the occasion, the publisher is handing out its “popular” game Mini Ninjas on PC. The only caveat is that you’ll need to jump through a crazy amount of hoops to actually download the thing. In typical Square Enix fashion, everything is convoluted with some padded out steps to getting your free game.

Essentially, you’ll need to sign up for a Square Enix account, add the game to your cart as normal, enter a discount coupon code (MiniNinjas, which is case sensitive), finish the checkout process and then download the game from your “MY ORDERS” page. So much easier than just putting up a download link for a day. This offer is valid from today until May 15 at 11:59 pm PDT while supplies last and is only available for North and South America.
