Esta original apuesta, con una curva de dificultad adecuada y exigente, varios modos a elegir y un multijugador bien pulido, queda prácticamente como un regalo

99Moves is somewhat worse than the last entry. The presentation has not really changed much and the selection for the solo player is disappointing. Next to this, the game is more relentless and that isn't something that every player will find appealing. You will have a good time with friends though and it is worth playing if you always have a batch of people at hand.

Finally, although I enjoyed the simple, responsive controls, I found myself wishing the aesthetic had gone further in a presenting a retro style. The synth soundtrack was mostly forgettable and the graphics didn’t evoke feelings of nostalgia; they were simple and plain. This blandness cemented my disappointment with the other problems I’ve highlighted. Some players may enjoy 99Moves on its concept alone; everyone else should set their expectations realistically.

99Moves não tem grandes ambições e é relativamente barato, mas não deixa de ser uma proposta insípida de valor muito passageiro. Só os fanáticos por desafios retro é que serão capazes de lhe dar uma oportunidade.

99Moves offers up a brisk trip through 12 levels of arcade-style action, and that's what it does best — its claustrophobic levels requiring quick reflexes can be quite exciting if enjoyed in small play sessions. There's a nagging feeling that something's missing, however; the core concept sidesteps a few obvious improvements that could have increased its appeal, leaving the levels feeling a bit long and slapdash considering their small number. In addition, the changes made from the DSiWare original offer mixed results, from the middling (the new multiplayer modes) to the confusing (V-99's reduced hit box). If you're in the mood for some bargain-priced old-school fun, you could do a lot worse than 99Moves — but don't be surprised if you find yourself thinking up ways the game might have been improved as you play.

For players of a certain persuasion there's plenty of love to go around for EnjoyUp's latest: costing about the same as a few plays at your local arcade, 99Moves offers a rock-hard retro challenge. But just the same as the coin-munchers of yore, one person's challenge is another's cheap trick. 99Moves doesn't do a great job at differentiating the two.
