The story in the game receives mixed feedback; some players find it engaging with intriguing twists, a mature dark theme, and a satisfying conclusion, while others feel it is poorly executed, inconsistent, and lacking depth. The narrative is presented through cutscenes between levels and complements the time management gameplay, though its spooky elements may be less prominent than expected. Overall, fans of time management games seeking a standalone, story-driven experience geared toward a mature audience may appreciate it despite some story shortcomings.
- “The art is so detailed, the story really interesting, and the game well built where you can go back and revisit the story parts without having to redo the levels.”
- “The story has some good twists and turns and the game itself is challenging but not crazy hard, with multiple difficulty settings if you need to turn it up or down.”
- “A really cool game with a great story which hooks you from start to finish.”
- “The story definitely needed to be ironed out, more levels, longer cutscenes, or just have some story aspects reworked or taken out entirely.”
- “I also did find some inconsistencies with the time period this game was set in, which did take me out of the story.”
- “Despite finding the story disappointing and boring, I did have a good time with Scarlet’s Haunted Hotel.”

The gameplay is described as addictive and challenging, offering the usual three difficulty levels (easy, normal, hard). Fans of time management games will likely enjoy it, even if the story or haunted theme is less prominent. Overall, it is considered fun and enjoyable on its own merit.
- “If you like the time management gameplay that GameHouse games have, don’t mind the possibility of not liking the story, and don’t mind the haunted aspect not being as prevalent as you probably expect; it’s worth picking up on sale.”
- “Heck, I’d even say it’s worth picking up for the gameplay alone as it’s pretty addicting and gives you a nice challenge.”
- “With the gameplay, I found it to be very fun and enjoyable.”

The graphics are colorful and sharp, with the hall minigame featuring distinct spooky visuals during ghost levels. However, users feel other minigames could benefit from varied or more unique visual styles to enhance variety.
- “The minigame for the hall location has different visuals as it’s normal during normal levels, but it’s spooky during the ghost levels.”
- “It would have been nice if the other minigames had different visuals too or, even better, required you to do something different (turning it on its head) or replacing it with a different minigame.”
- “Colorful and sharp graphics.”
