IGN panned the game, writing "Interpol is good for a few short bursts of seek-and-find fun, but it's just not a game that's very well suited to the console. Add that to the poor image resolution, inconsistent puzzles and overall shaky production value, and you have a game that's probably not worth the download."^[12] ABC.com.au's Good Game Stories also panned the game.^[16]
