- Gerald, Geek Culture - "I was originally drawn towards Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! by its name and bright, cartoon art style. But then I found out that you can tell Cloud his Buster Sword is too huge and, well, now I love the idea of this game."
- Chris Priestman, Siliconera - "Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! has a cutesy art style and offbeat premise going for it. That's plenty. I'm am down."
