WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "But I’m not going to totally pan a decent bag of chips. Nothing about Deep Deep Deep Nightmare was unpleasant, offensive or boring. It has some flaws, sure, but it also has some genuine quality that comes from a well thought out gameplan. Buy guns, buy spells, buy hats and shoot baddies. Keep going till the game’s over, then have yourself a little victory party. It’s honestly a good time, and twinstick enthusiasts will find something to love with the smoothness of control and the ramping difficulty of the stages. You’re not going to necessarily keep dipping back in once the bag is empty, but you will be satisfied. It’s a good snack."
