It is up to Shien to defeat them and rescue Aska from these creatures beyond the Time Gate.
Shien's Revenge is a first-person Operation Wolf -style shooter that puts the player in the role of Shien the ninja.
Movement is automatically controlled by the game, which scrolls horizontally or vertically.
The player must use his weapons, long-range shuriken (throwing stars) and a close-range dagger in order to defeat various enemy ninjas and creatures that appear on the screen.
A set of candles indicate the player's life meter.
Power-ups such as rapid fire and scrolls can be picked up by defeating enemies.
The use of scrolls produces a powerful attack that damages everything on the screen.
At the end of each area, the player encounters a boss who must be defeated through the depletion of its life meter.
About Super Nintendo Entertainment System
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (1990/1991) is widely regarded as home to one of the strongest first-party libraries in gaming history, from Super Metroid to Chrono Trigger. It's a mature collecting market: iconic RPGs and late-cycle releases (which typically had smaller print runs as the industry moved toward the next generation) are consistently among the most sought-after and valuable cartridges from the 16-bit era.
Gamevaro tracks Shien for Super 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 Shien 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 SNES release dates back to 1994.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Shien 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.
