Reception
99 Levels to Hell received generally mixed reviews. According to review aggregator Metacritic, 99 Levels to Hell received "mixed or average reviews", with an average score of 66 out of 100 from five critic reviews. James Cunningham of Hardcore Gamer rated the game 4 out of 5, saying, "99 Levels to Hell is a fun and bloody descent into the not-quite-bottomless depths, loaded with replayability and almost impossible to put down until the poor explorer has lost his last heart of health." Christian Dolan, reviewing the game for Eurogamer, was more critical, giving the game a 6 out of 10. He described the game as "relatively entertaining stuff", but noting that it "struggles to assert its own identity", ultimately finding it hard to not compare it to its competition.
