Since the ‘ 80s remain a lot of old video game heroes get: Pacman, Mario and the Tetris blocks. And Yes, the definitely have lost nothing of their radiance. A Russian programmer by the name of Alexei manage it is thanks to that we will be able to indulge in since 1985 until today, our destruction, love against blocks. Even the classic Sounds are preserved until today and I couldn’t be happier about it. Because there is hardly a title that brings me more in my Childhood in the 90s back like Tetris and those melodies everyone probably knows it by heart. But the way up in my nursery was not an easy one.
The distribution channel Hungary in the West, and several Studios, it took 3 years until the Atari and Nintendo, the game is in your range. Alexei manage but was still very long recognition and remuneration in the USSR for be Do got. Only in 1991, succeeded in emigrating to the USA and a successful company.

CONCLUSION

Is Tetris 99 so the better Fortnite? Now, jain, to be honest. I, personally, have in the last few weeks, dear Tetris 99, as all the other Battle Royal Games played. The reason is that it is as a game better? No, it is simple in the idea, faster Matchmaking, and more complex in Gameplay than the Rest. It is fun for a quick round on the Sofa or when I’m driving with the Bus to work and it takes longer. But due to the fast exchange of the blocks, the constant opponent of the fields and the continuous siege changed by other players, it is quite stressful and you can only play due to this Game longer than half an hour. It is not a Game that one plays without a break over a longer period of time, but rather something in between. However, it is clear at the Top Battle Royal Games here.
