Giger/H.P. Lovecraft-style graphics, nicely gross pulsating hearts  for continue markers, and an eerie background melody straddling the line between 'The Twilight Zone' them and the soundtrack from the movie 'Phantasm', this is one title every CRT zombie will enjoy."

The editors wrote that its "game play is compelling, and its haunting music and graphics add to the atmospheric fun." External links and references. Reddig, Randy. Troubled Souls. 1994.
