Mortal Coil received mixed reviews upon release. Chris Anderson of PC Zone highlighted the multiple character concept and "massive" levels, but faulted the game's "awful" and "unimaginative" graphical presentation, "sluggish" movement and voiceovers.[2] Joystick wrote that "with a more efficient 3D engine, Mortal Coil could have been a very good game".[1] The German edition of PC Player commended the game for "offering something new", but found the game to be "outdated and lacking in detail" in its graphics and encountered several bugs.[3] Power Play described the game as "disappointing" due to its "below-average presentation", lack of strategy and poor translations.[4]
