Review scores
US: Nintendo Power would rate the game in their 1990 Pak Source, giving it a score spread of 3/3/2.5/2.5 across graphics & sound, play control, challenge and theme & fun.
UK: Nintendo Magazine System included the game in the index of their initial October 1992 issue. They rated it 67%, citing 'This conversion is a good translation of the original coin-op, but it's the coin-op's simplicity that severely limits Popeye's powers of lastability'.
