TLDR Review: Tetris 99 for Switch
Score
"Tetris 99 + NSO earns its strong score thanks to the exhilarating and strategic gameplay that melds classic Tetris mechanics with a competitive battle royale format, appealing to both veterans and newcomers. However, customer frustration stems from issues with the regional online membership codes and the lack of comprehensive tutorials, which detracts from the overall user experience."

Bottom Line
Tetris might be an oldie but clearly, it's still a goodie, with its fun gameplay and beautiful graphics. However, the setup process can be a bit of a maze, and if you're not in Europe, you might want to look elsewhere. It's a perfect fit for those seeking a blend of simplicity and variety, but the tech hurdles could be a deal-breaker for the less patient.
