The game received "favorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. [2]
AppAdvice said, "With Super Mole Escape, think of Jetpack Joyride , except it is vertical rather than horizontal. This alone makes the game feel refreshing and new, already worthy of being in your collection." [7] Modojo wrote, "You won't play a more experimental, risky, fun and flamboyant endless-runner this year, and for that reason alone we're happy to recommend this as the best example of genre evolution we've seen in a very long time indeed. Bravo." [1] Pocket Gamer said, "Blessed with instantly appealing gameplay, engaging presentation, and plenty of long-term challenge, Super Mole Escape is a must-have download." [5] Gamezebo said, "Its tilt controls are some of the best I've seen in an endless runner (there are also touch controls, but I found myself preferring tilt), the graphics are as vibrant and charming as we've grown to expect from an [adult swim]-published game, and the inclusion of achievements and sundry unlockables makes the game dangerously addictive." [4] TouchArcade said, "Super Mole Escape knows what it does well, and exploits it to its fullest." [6] AppSpy said it was "Not an endless runner, but an endless tunneler, that has visual appeal plus addictive gameplay coupled with fair prices for upgrades." [8] Edge wrote, "The thrill of the chase is still present [...] even if we've come to expect something a little more subversive from Adult Swim." [3]
