TouchArcade said "This is yet another speedrunning masterpiece that everyone ought to own." [2] Apple'N'Apps wrote "Mikey Boots offers an intense, yet fun challenge that will keep you actively engaged, and we enjoyed making it a must have title." [3] Gamezebo said "Mikey Boots is a nice reminder of a time when mobile games weren't aiming to compete toe-to-toe with consoles and PC. When you consider the series is only a few years old, that’s kind of mind-blowing." [4] 148Apps wrote "Mikey Boots is a fine third installment in the excellent Mikey series of platformers." [5] IGN Italia said "Mikey is back with another cool gadget that leads to another great platform game. It's definitely a must have title for the genre." [6] Pocket Gamer wrote "A clever remix of what's come before, Mikey Boots might not be a platformer in the purest sense of the word, but it's definitely worth a look." [7]
