Next Generation reviewed the Genesis version of the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that "you have another side-scrolling action game that leaves a bad taste in your mouth."[2][why?] Game Informer gave an overall score of 5.75 out of 10 noting the game geared for younger players, the gameplay being too easy and noting that the game does not offer anything new or innovative although the game was well designed for an action platformer concluding “it captures the quality of Sonic the Hedgehog and promises the wholesomeness and entertainment of the Olympic Games themselves.”[4]
