The game received generally mediocre reviews. Mike Weigand of Electronic Gaming Monthly commented on the game that "the graphics are quite good, but the overall theme of the game isn't very thrilling".[1] Scary Larry of GamePro agreed that the game was dull, remarking "There's not much else to do here but shoot and steer", and disagreed on the graphics, citing muddy colors and a lack of detail.[3] Next Generation saw a somewhat more positive review for the game. It said the game was technically impressive for its fluid animation and near-absence of load times, and though it criticized the lack of variety in the levels, it concluded, "However, on balance, it's smooth, fast and exciting, and what more could you ask for?"[2]
