The game was not as well received as the first Felix game with complaints including the odd choice of keys, such as using the down cursor key to move right (although this layout was also used in the first game), and the difficulty of actually keeping the fruit from the monsters, who move quickly around the maze. Dave E of the Electron User Group praised the sprites, as used in the first game, but claimed the game "lacks any 'oomph'".

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:

—The Lions Clubs International and the Quest Nation. The Surprising Years, I, ch.4 (1985)
“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)
