Pure Nintendo: "Spot the difference games aren’t for everybody, but Heathcliff: Spot On surprised me in a good way, and ended up being better than I expected. If the genre’s for you, this is probably as good an implementation as any. If not, the Heathcliff material might just sway you."
DHGF: Heathcliff: Spot On is a rather obvious spot-the-difference game. While it controls well, it has several nagging flaws. If you’re going to use panels from a comic strip, you don’t forget the captions. If you’re going to include a paint tool, you’ve got to let the player keep their creations. Add on a repetitive gameplay structure and a lackluster presentation, and this game easily ends up on the “skip” list.
