- TEEFAX: Cold Case offers a unique and nostalgic experience, effectively capturing the look and feel of retro Teletext.
- The game provides a fun and bite-sized investigative experience, making it a decent way to spend around 30 minutes.
- Controls have been improved from its predecessor, allowing for easier navigation and access to content with a simple click.
- Some puzzles are frustratingly obtuse and lack logical transitions, often requiring brute force to solve.
- The game suffers from technical limitations, including a lack of resolution options and a simplistic interface that feels outdated.
- The overall experience is shallow, with little narrative depth or character development, leading to a lack of fulfillment in solving the case.

The gameplay is characterized by a simplistic user interface that primarily consists of 2D static text and images, resembling a web page. This design choice helps to gradually introduce players to mechanics they will encounter later in the game.
“It may ease the player into a mechanic they'll see later by using an obvious example.”
“For gameplay purposes, the user interface for this game is mostly just 2D static text/images, making it feel more like a web page than an engaging game.”
“The gameplay mechanics are introduced in a way that may ease the player into more complex elements they'll encounter later, but it feels overly simplistic.”
