| Sinclair User's Spectrum review, in November 1988, called it "a fantastic conversion" of the arcade game and said it gives pacifists nightmares. It noted that the scrolling never slows down with ten men on screen and that a continue option, once per game, carries on from the last level reached. The same issue's Megatape 9 carried a playable demo. | p. 26p. 27p. 27p. 27p. 5 | Magazine |
| Sinclair User's reviewer, Jim, gave the Spectrum version 90 overall, with 90 for graphics, 70 for sound, 80 for playability, and 92 for lastability, under an Arcade Review badge, and summed it up as "Virtually flawless. Addictive, violent and unsound. One for everyone's Christmas list." The review's Fax Box gives the price as £7.95 and the memory as 48K/128K. | p. 27 (image n26), ratingsp. 27 (image n26), ratingsp. 27 (image n26), ratingsp. 27 (image n26), ratingsp. 27 (image n26), ratingsp. 27 (image n26)p. 27 (image n26), verdictp. 27 (image n26), Fax Box | Magazine |
