He also complained of targeting problems but gave the game a strong recommendation due to 'the fun of cruising the halls, wiping out aliens, and torching and detonating the area.' A reviewer for Maximum likewise was pleased with the sound effects but felt the graphics to be authentic to the films yet unimpressive, remarking that the animation on the aliens is a severe disappointment after Acclaim's considerable boasting about their new motion capture technology.
Scary Larry of GamePro also commented positively on the sound effects but was not impressed by the graphics, remarking that though they are faithful to the films, they are overly monochrome and suffer from extreme pixelation.
Two of the reviewers also commented that the use of mission objectives gives the game more depth than the average first person shooter.
The four reviewers of Electronic Gaming Monthly gave the PlayStation version their 'Game of the Month' award, concurring it to be the best video game based on the Alien franchise yet, chiefly due to the graphics and sound effects authentically recreating the style of the films. Aggregating review website GameRankings gave the PlayStation version 77.50% based on 5 reviews, the Sega Saturn version 77.00% based on 1 review, and the PC version 43.00% based on 3 reviews.
Alien Trilogy received generally positive reviews from critics.
