Blog site Higher Plain Music wrote a lengthy review of the soundtrack as they were approched by Winifred herself.  Their verdict?

Winifred Phillips has created a soundtrack that keeps the essence of Sims music intact with its magical melodrama and lush production but she’s also moved it into a world that gives it maturity and a more polished feel. The whole soundtrack gives a certain warmth that I can only relate to with Mitsuda’s “Hako No Niwa” but if your a Sims, Mitsuda, Celtic or orchestrated music, you’ll feel right at home here. The first must have of 2009 for VGM fans is here.
