Casual Gameplay writes: "Heartwild Solitaire is marketed as "made for romance readers", so if your second-favourite thing after casual gaming is sinking into a hot tub with a lychee bath bomb and a copy of Love's Turgid Kransky, you're going to love this game. The nice thing is, if you're the sort of person who prefers to lampoon romance novels with titles like Love's Turgid Kransky, you'll still enjoy the challenging gameplay, soothing music and intense colours."
GameZebo: "It begins with Anne, standing in her night clothes with a bloody lip, holding a gun to her abusive husband John. She's sure he deserves to be shot, but she can't bare to do it herself, so she intentionally misfires and then flees into the forest. Finally free of John and her old life, she decides to start a new. Then she meets Ross and his mistress Binky...and telling you anything more would spoil the plot! For those who are concerned, there are no illustrations of violence or anything else, so the mature elements in the story are strictly in the text."
