Check out my quick demo using Bevel & Emboss in the layer styles. Assuming you have larger assets, you can break up your shapes into multiple layers and apply the layer style to each of them for more depth/detail.

You can see my result in the red box, using very crude selections and that tiny sprite, it looks pretty similar to the source.
