A simple and addictive arcade game for its time, ACU certainly felt it had its merits, their reviewer believing that it was "well worth a look at, although as it is such an addictive game its a shame there is only one screen to play."
These limitations and the passing of time meant that by the time Amstrad Action ran their eye over the programme it had lost a little of its edge declaring that while it was a nice idea for a game, that the gameplay was somewhat repetitive.
Amtix weren't quite as kind as their Bath counterparts, claiming that the game would be of appeal only to younger gamers, again citing the repetitive element of the task as its key downfall.
