Reception
editRetro Gaming Magazine suggested "the game’s not as terrible as many people make it out to be".[4] PC Joker gave the game a rating of 39%[5] and GamesMania gave it 40%.[6] PC Gamer said "the level of frustration will quickly turn off a lot of inexperienced gamers."[7] Just Adventure felt the level of shooting was too little for action fans but too much for adventure fans.[8] The AV Vault felt it had "dated, blocky graphics [and] low production values".[9]
CD-Action wrote "The Abyss is second to none and will surprise you with its fineness".[10] Power Play Magazine thought the game was enriched by "unusual" puzzles and action elements.[11]
