The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[1] Although most critics gave it favorable reviews upon release,[3][5][6] the only critic who gave it overwhelming dislike was Eurogamer, who said, "I'm all for artistic-minded developers that push the boundaries of convention and dare to try new things - I just want to be entertained along the way. Is that too much to ask?"[2]
