Wytchwood received positive reviews on Metacritic.[2] Writing for Rock Paper Shotgun, Alice Bell wrote "A dark fairy-tale to-do list that takes full advantage of its premise and has a lot of fun with it. You'll fall in love with Wytchwood's no-nonsense crone."[4] In her review for Eurogamer, Malindy Hetfeld said she enjoyed her first 10 hours playing the game, but the crafting began to feel like busy work.[5] Though he criticized the game's pacing, Nintendo Life's reviewer, Ollie Reynolds, called Wytchwood "a relaxing and addictive jaunt into the world of crafting".[3]
