Marty Halpern reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World , and stated that "once you understand how the game functions, it really is quite simple. By the way, I've not revealed all of the Jabbertalker's secrets... these you must discover on your own. So, while I try to find Alice, why don't you just uncurl your cramped fingers from about that joystick, forget about the aliens or hidden treasure for a little while, and enter the world of the Jabbertalker."
