99Seconds Critic Reviews

There's no denying what it does do is gripping, challenging and enjoyable.

99Seconds takes the qualities of successful Smartphone titles and applies them to DSiWare; cheap, unique, easy-but-challenging and addictive experiences outside of a game cartridge or disc.

Had 99seconds an arcade cabinet yelling for our attention, we would stroll right on up to it and put in the equivalent of 200 Nintendo Points for a quick challenge of skill. It's a title limited in scope but 99seconds does one thing and does it with competence, and that's probably all that we could reasonably ask of it before marching on to the next cabinet.

You just boot up the game, enjoy it for almost 100 seconds, and move on. You can come back and play later, but there's no need to.
