WTMG's Leo Faria: "Beholgar is just… there. It’s not a terrible metroidvania, but it’s severely lacking in notable elements that make it positively stand out among a sea of other indie metroidvanias in the market. Not even the fact this is the closest to a Conan metroidvania we’ll probably ever get seemed to pique my interest at the end of the day. All in all, it’s not an offensively bad game, far from it, but it’s very unmemorable. And sometimes, being forgettable and bland is even more disappointing than being outright bad. At least I have (less than fond) memories of the bad games I play."
Paul writes: "In Beholgar on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S we have a game with some good ideas that is marred by poor execution."
Exophase: "In a lot of ways, Beholgar is a really cool game. But it sadly falls victim to some setbacks that come as a result of being a little too retro."
