Reception

Media website cinemablend.com ran a negative review by Andy Keener, who labeled the game "boring and tiresome". He also stated, "Your characters never get better, but the enemies get stronger. The levels never feature anything of note; they could be blank white rooms with no doors and the gameplay would be exactly the same."
