U.S. Gold published the home-computer versions under license from Namco: Crash's July 1987 review credits the ZX Spectrum game to "US Gold/Namco", Sinclair User's of the same month calls it licensed from Namco's arcade game and gives its label as US Gold, and Zzap!64 reviewed U.S. Gold's Commodore 64 version in August 1987.image 57, Arcade ReviewMagazine
Sinclair User's July 1987 Arcade Review of the ZX Spectrum version scored it 5 out of 10, calling it initially entertaining but ultimately unsatisfying; the reviewer found it too easy early and not particularly exciting, with everything but the back wall in black and white and 24 levels, each with a time limit.image 57, Arcade Reviewimage 57image 57image 57image 57Magazine
