'' reviewed the game, rating it three stars out of five. The reviewer called it a "Big mistake" to trade the flying machines of ''Thunderstrike'' for the walking robot, as "the net effect is the slowing down of action". He did find that the game offered "a relatively exciting challenge" but criticized the "bitmaps that look fine if you fly by them look blocky walking up to them" and quipped that "we'll keep waiting for ''Thunderstrike II''."
