Pure Nintendo: "Treasure Hunter X has its share of weaknesses, but overall it turns out to be a very good download, especially for its budget $1.99 price point. With its challenge, adoption of elements from classic games, and catchy music, it’ll be well worth it for gamers looking for a throwback to games of old. Even though it doesn’t offer much flare, it mostly accomplishes what it set out to do, and ends up being much better than the sum of its parts. Check this one out … it’ll grow on you."
NintendoLife: We've seen a rash of games on the various download services take a page or two from the games of years gone by, some better than others. Treasure Hunter X attempts to capture a bit of the magic of some of the classic computer games like Boulder Dash and Lode Runner and build a unique gaming experience around it. But while there are plenty of familiar gameplay elements strung throughout the game, there's really not anything new to make the experience interesting.
It appears that not even the Wii Shop Channel and Nintendo DSi Shop are immune to the spellbinding forces of Valentine's Day.
