Template:Basic Enemy Info (Better) Ninja Slice is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Ninja Slice is a cheese pizza slice with light brown arms and legs. It wears a ninja mask, gloves and shoes, all in red. It has a fierce look and is often seen in a fighting stance when not disguised. Ninja Slices occasionally appear with different mask and glove colors, such as purple, pink, blue, or orange, corresponding with the color of Pizza Boy it disguised as. This is purely cosmetic.

Behaviour

Ninja Slice disguises itself as a Pizza Boy cutout, being provoked when the player gets close. It will initially jump at the player with a high-reaching uppercut attack. From there, Ninja Slice will take to the ground in fighting stance, stepping forward or backward to keep a set distance between it and the player, and releasing a flurry of kicks from time to time. Ninja Slice's can drop off of platforms while it attempts to keep its distance, which may cause it to inadvertently fall into hazards such as water.

Trivia
