Jim Durig of IGN wrote, "Archetype is an engaging trip from start to finish, but don't get too comfortable or else Tone's rapid-fire style makes it easy to miss out on his high-caliber lyricism."[4] He added, "His flow is truly one of a kind, though, covering up for the occasional musical misstep."[4] Paine of AllHipHop wrote, "this album may win ears while shunning others, but Tonedeff has courageously delivered his magnum opus with supreme individuality to cut away from a densely populated Hip-hop community."[2] J-23 of HipHopDX described Archetype as "another great, accessibly indy album that should be selling millions instead of most of the shit that's charting."[3]
