Jeff Lundrigan reviewed the PlayStation version of the game for Next Generation, rating it one star out of five, and stated that "So bad, we're tempted to buy up copies just to protect some unsuspecting child from picking it up."[2]

The game was very poorly received, with OPM saying that "rarely has a game combined gameplay this lifeless with looks that are so offensive".
