Seeing a horde of goblins charging at you from afar is very epic looking the first few times around. There is little good to say about this game. However, these high hopes have been met with frustration and disappointment. Having been a huge fan of the Dynasty Warrior series, as redundant as they all are, I had high hopes of Ninety-Nine Nights. I'd rather have Ninety-Nine bottles of beer on the wall If you can deal with that, however, the game is definately worth checking out. This can be a pain considering a player may play for twenty or thirty minutes just be defeated by the boss at the end and have to go through the entire level again. The player must complete each level (including bosses) in their entirety, or play them all over again. There are no checkpoints or means of saving mid game. There is a wide variety of characters to choose from who all have their own unique and impressive ab ilities and advantages.ĭespite all of this, there is a down side. Friends watching the battles take place are always stunned.
I've never played another game where the character's special attacks (yes, multiple specials for each character) were just as fun to sit and watch take place as they were to use. The combos are rediculous, the upgrades impressive, and the attacks will blow you away. Breaking sieges and storming castles with a crew of chooseable swordmen and archers definately adds to the fun. This game puts the player in the middle of fantastic battles against hundreds of enemies at once, including humans, goblins, orcs, wizards, trolls, and even dragons. I bought this game for a change in genre from what I'm used to playing.
