They are currently involved in an uprising against their feudal lord.

The feudal lord has dispatched his army of ninjas to put a halt to this revolt.
Gameplay is viewed from a top down perspective.
Players get to explore four different locations (stages) searching for gold coins (kobans) that are spread out across the land.
Every gold coin has to be collected for the player to move on to the next stage.
While searching for the coins, players have to deal with the enemy ninjas and other minions of the land who want to harm them.
Players can defend themselves by throwing scythes at any incoming opponent.
They can also pick up items such as a bamboo spear for an additional weapon, plus find items that can increase speed of movement, and an item that will give the player an extra life.
There is also an item that will give the player a chance at a bonus round between stages.
In the bonus round, players have to catch falling rice (onigiri) being thrown at them from above.
Catching the rice adds bonus points to the player's score while catching all ten onigiri will grant the player a bonus life.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Ikki for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Ikki to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1985.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Ikki has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
