"PONG Quest is a delightful game that masterfully combines retro gameplay with a dungeon crawling RPG formula. It may not have the most stylish visuals or long-lasting gameplay yet it remains a highly enjoyable and charming take on a timeless …"

"Pong Quest brings back fond memories of Atari&s;s roots, but this simplistic package doesn&s;t have the depth or complexity to stun modern audiences."

"PONG Quest is a surprisingly solid PONG game, but not a solid RPG game. It&s;s a fun experience that I&s;d have trouble recommending if it wasn&s;t only $15. If you&s;re looking to burn a few hours during the quarantine, you …"

"Pong Quest overachieves and winds up delivering a top-notch game of Pong while also paying tribute to and expanding upon dungeon-crawling RPG tropes."

"Pong Quest may masquerade as something new and fresh, but it very much remains the same decades-old game with only just a dusting of RPG mechanics."
