WTMG's Leo Faria: "Softie is a short, occasionally cute, occasionally creepy, but constantly obtuse point-and-click adventure. Even if its runtime isn’t mean to last for an hour, I got stuck once or twice due to some confusing puzzles and a lack of a hint system. Regardless, it was a merely passable pasttime for a day, one I don’t regret tackling, but not exactly one I’ll remember. Fans of “edgy-but-cute” art and media (the people who used to hang out at Hot Topic two decades ago) might have a kick with this quasi-Burtonian imagery and creepiness, but for everyone else, there are other equally short, but more interesting titles out there to distract you from the recent barrage of time-consuming AAA and live service titles."
