  1. Nintendo Power
    80
    It's a great, bouncy ride. [Nov 2001, p.148]
  2. Somewhat typical of arcade-style console games, though the graphical elements are quite good.
  3. It’s not a terrible game, but everything about it, from the gameplay on down, has been done a great deal more effectively in a slew of other GBA games with considerably more gameplay muscle.
  4. The graphics are cartoony and charming and I like the looks of the various enemies. It would have been nice if the environments had been a bit more interactive.
  5. It's the role-model for mediocre action games.
  6. 50
    A challenge to get through...but the frustration level is absolutely massive.
  7. Kao the Kangaroo is one such Sonic/Mario wannabe that is hampered by poor game mechanics and unoriginality.
  8. Not entirely unlike Nintendo's Super Mario World, except that it's significantly more dull and frustrating.
