Critical reception
Tap-Repeatedly/Four Fat Chicks gave the game 80/100, writing "There's nothing groundbreaking here, no radical new interface or slick engine, no strikingly addictive gaming paradigms. Just a cool old-school adventure with good puzzles, fun characters and lots of eye candy." Adventure Classic Gaming game the game 3 stars, saying "Overall, the combination of simple puzzles, appealing visual style, and the distinct style of humor make Chewy: Esc from F5 a good game for young players who are just getting into adventure gaming". Home of the Underdogs wrote "Chewy is a fun but sadly unknown cartoon adventure in the style of LucasArts' classic Day of the Tentacle but with plenty of charms on its own. You play Chewy, a cute little alien (and very pink) who is out to rescue his friend who's been captured by the evil Borks. The puzzles, while not as creative as in DOTT, are quite zany (along the way you must capture a ghost, and write a best-selling novel) and fun to solve. Overall, a fun adventure that shouldn't be missed."
