 "Computer Gaming World" in November 1993 criticised "Hell Cab"s "very slow" CD and Quicktime streaming speed, stating that the delays interrupted the player's immersion.The magazine described the software as "more like an interactive tour book and variety show lumped into one" than a game, and concluded with a hope that as technology improved "Moreno will be able to create a world of sight and sounds that truly entertain and offer smoother immersion into his creative vision".In April 1994 the magazine said that "Hell Cab" was "a case of new technology meeting old game design ... we were enamored of the graphics but less than enchanted with some of the game play".
