The game is noted due to its similarities to Zelda II: Adventure of Link. Zero wrote that Ax Battler successfully expanded on the premise of the original games and called it a "surefire winner", rating it an 87%. However, Mean Machines called the beat'em up aspect of the game "extremely poor" and called the quest "dull and uninspiring." Rating the game a 39%, they compared playing Ax Battler to jumping off a cliff - writing "one go is more than enough, and isn't really recommended at all."

Famous quotes containing the word reception:

    But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.”
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

    To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.
    Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
