Game retrospective about early female video game characters, while in early games Tyris "forgot to put her armour on over her underwear. These days, she's much more properly attired for combat." GamesRadar's Jim Sterling included "this flame-haired temptress [who] seems to think that doing battle in a bikini is a wise idea" on his 2011 list of the sexiest sprites of all time, adding: "She has 16 bits of world class tits and nobody's taking that away from her." Beast Rider The character's reimagined version in Golden Axe: Beast Rider received a very mixed critical reception. GamesRadar criticized the game for removing the other heroes "leaving only a super-slutted-up version of Tyris Flare," but added: Again, we're sort of fine with that it's a chance to re-invent the series for a new age, maybe even position it as competition against God of War or Heavenly Sword.

Eurogamer's Dan Whitehead lambasted Tyris' animation in the game as "hilariously bad, her movements stiff and laughably doll," comparing her run to the scene in The Muppet Movie "when they'd cut away to Kermit's legs being moved around on sticks to show him moving." Play'''s Dave Halverson wrote: "Tyris is a beautiful heroine; so beautiful, in fact, that the absence of dynamic animation is all the more puzzling," singling out her "limited boob animation" as his special concern. Conversely, Destructoid's Conrad Zimmerman compared Tyris to a drug addict prostitute and not because of costume as "after all and it's not an unexpected wardrobe choice for women in these sorts of games.
