Console Creatures writes, "With superb art, sound design, memorable music, and a uniquely crafted, strange world, Keeper truly lives up to its name. Its eccentricity reflects the creativity typical of Double Fine."
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "When you think about it, the essence of every game is problem-solving in one way or another. For the puzzle genre, that's expressed through a series of brainteasers. A challenge is placed at your feet and you're pushed to understand it with limited contextual clues. From industry veterans to relative newbies, familiar franchises to brand-new IPs, 2025 saw a deluge of impressive puzzlers. Among our finalists are not merely well-designed templates based on familiar staples; a couple move the genre forward in interesting directions."
"Keeper is both different and deeply intriguing, with a genuine sense of wonder woven into every moment - a world and a friendship worth exploring."
- Stuart Cullen, TechStomper
Shaz from PS: "‘Keeper’ may not be a 'game of the year' contender, but it’s one of those games you need to play."
