VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Encroaching upon the signposted finale gave me a sigh of relief; not one of escaping undistilled trepidation but of disregarding whatever it was all about. Even with incredibly minimal positives, Evil Inside resigns itself to being a cliché-laden homage of P.T. with little else to say. Its more charitable category as a humble – if still woefully underdeveloped – indie project would go down smoother were it not set at such an egregious price. Another one for the digital dustbin."
Evil Inside is a popular psychological horror title for PC and consoles, now being adapted for PSVR 2 and Meta Quest.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "From botched gameplay experiments to laughably bad presentation to simply being unplayable messed, this list of the top (or should it be bottom?) 10 worst games of 2021 has it all!"
WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "Evil Inside is yet another failed attempt to recapture the brilliance of PT in a “full game” format, but it ends up missing the mark in every single way you could possibly imagine. This isn’t scary at all, it’s just boring, uninteresting, and most importantly, annoying, mostly due to the overabundance of loud noises and jump scares. There are much better PT-inspired horror games out there, so don’t fret with this one."
