It's a good thing for gamers that are enthused about download games for platforms like the PSP Go or on PS3. The PSP version sports nice visual design, especially in the art style of the characters. Elements of Norse mythology are scattered throughout, including locations like Bifrost, a rainbow bridge that runs between the world of men and the world of the gods. Balancing on the line between typical 3D and more of a cel-shaded look, Young Thor occasionally pulls out something distinctive."

The PS Vita Review Network has posted their opinions of the PlayStation Mini, Young Thor.
"All in all, Young Thor was a neat little platformer, taking its roots from Norse Mythology that is not focused on enough in gaming. The visuals have taken a turn for the worse being stretched out on the Vita’s screen and many of the stages are carbon copies of others. However, if you enjoy beat-em-up games and Role-Playing Games, you should definitely give this game a go. It’s a fun little game worth the measly $2.49 price tag."
