Review Tetris 99 (Switch) - A Revolutionary Take On A Puzzle Classic
Apex who?

I'm a huge Tetris fan and it pains me to say that I didn't like this too much. The lack of content (even with the Big Block DLC bought) extremely limits the replay value for me and its Battle Royale mode was only fun a few times until you'll eventually realize that you've seen it all. Sure, there's incentives that some events give you to playing the Battle Royale mode, but that's all I'll say.
Puyo Puyo Tetris offered a lot more than this.
It's Tetris all the way, it's addictive and a decent presentation.
This game is fun because of its chaos within the game
U and 98 people compete in a tetris match but it’s so much fun
Will u be the last one standing?
