GameRankings gave the game a score of 68.12% for the 3DO version, a 50.25% for the Sega Saturn version, and a 35% for the PC version, with the latter based on a sole review from GameSpot's Jeffery Adam Young, who gave the game a 3.5 out of 10 and said that it was "a skillfully animated cartoon that is almost entirely unplayable and fails completely as an interactive experience." The Sega Saturn version did not fare much better for Hugh Sterbakov of the same gaming website, who gave it a 3.8 out of 10 and said it "makes no improvement in a decade-old genre that never managed to bring its interactive excitement up to the level of its visuals."

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)
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
