"Bad Cheese isn&s;t perfect, but it&s;s clever and creative. Its campaign may be brief, its puzzles uneven, and its controls a bit rough, but its art and sound make it linger in your mind long after the credits roll."

"Bad Cheese works great as a psychological horror and has some wonderful visuals, where the horror comes from the unsettling nature of its ties to the house of mouse."

"Though it fails as a horror game, Bad Cheese is still a narrative-driven title worth checking out for the strength of its premise, its interesting themes, and the merit of its art. This parody of classic cartoons and Americana might …"

"Bad Cheese is nothing more than a game that simply exists, mediocre and uninteresting, making the experience less memorable than a good retro horror like Alisa or Fear the Spotlight, but simply boring and uncreative, not even worthy of pity. …"

"Bad Cheese is a creatively important game and one that many will love, especially those who enjoy the 1920s cartoon visual style. I do think the gameplay gets a bit samey, doesn’t quite click at times, and feels a bit …"

"Bad Cheese thrives on its stunningly digusting art style, but only its art style. In comparison, its gameplay is dull and overlooks a stealth focus that could have made its horror and story themes shine. And by the time the …"

"Bad Cheese is a truly unique experience that has a fantastic art style that is clearly inspired by the early days of cartoons. I’d liken it to a mash-up between Steamboat Willie and Cuphead. The storyline is what kept me …"

"Bad Cheese stands out thanks to its visuals and the world it builds, which is only enhanced by the gameplay. However, a couple of technical issues hold it back from being a perfect experience."

"Absolutely a weird experience, with the classic animation look helping to prop up gameplay that can be a bit hit or miss overall"

"A brief, pacey and regularly unsettling pastiche of Steamboat Willie, Bad Cheese will unfortunately stop short of sending a shiver down your spine. For fans of teen-horror, it’s still worth a few hours of your time, but its rigid structure …"
