The PlayStation version received average reviews, while the PC version received unfavorable reviews, according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[13][14] Chris Charla of NextGen called the former version "The Wicker Man meets Marble Madness: surprisingly fun, especially for less than the cost of two boxes of Cheerios."[10]
