serious and sombre" and that "LucasFilm's games boast the more interesting characters and interaction sequences." Amiga Power praised its graphics, saying they are "very pretty drawn, with the dark, moody look you'd expect from a town being oppressed by an evil Temptress," calling it "one of the best graphic adventures ever" that's "up there with Monkey Island 1 and Beneath a Steel Sky," and adding that the "only drawback is that it's shorter than your average adventure." Mega Zone praised the game, stating that it is a "Sierra/Lucasfilmish with really, really good playability. We're talking 32 colours graphics which look really nice, with playability which is really smooth, and simply pure gaming enjoyment here," adding that "the manual is very well written, the sound the graphics are all there, disc access is very good, and looking at the way the whole game is put together right down to the intro it's one of the most amazing Amiga Adventures every written! An Adventure Zone classic!" Stuart Campbell of Amiga Power opined that Core Design's rival 1992 fantasy adventure game Curse of Enchantia (also published by Virgin) was "a funny version of Lure of the Temptress with a different plot." Adventure Classic Gaming was less positive in its retrospective review, stating "what makes Lure of the Temptress fun—but also annoying—is the game's unique gameplay engine" and that its graphics "unfortunately do not hold up well over the passage of time," but that many of the backgrounds are "quite beautiful" and summarizing by stating, "While far from being a dull game, Lure of the Temptress is also full of clichés and stagnant periods of gameplay which ultimately undermine the game's overall enjoyment."
