Paul Simpson of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, commenting that "Pieces will often suspensefully build up for several minutes before a beat gallops in, but it never resembles the predictable build-up-and-drop formula of most mainstream club music."[5] Daniel Sylvester of Exclaim! wrote, "Although Versus is certainly not a place for casual Craig fans to start, nor is it designed for the dance floor crowd, it's an achievement that appropriately showcases one of Detroit's finest exports."[7]
