GameSpot gave it a 7 out of 10, noting that it was a "quiet puzzler," and praised the hand-painted backdrops and interactivity. The review did criticize that there were not many challenging puzzles, and that some neat characters were removed from the game too quickly. [12] Kotaku also thought it was pretty and had nice characters. It also thought the puzzles were more streamlined and intuitive than the one before. [13]
