Reception
Commodore Use said: "I found it about as addictive as a trip to the dentist but then I've got Jelly Monsters if I want a burst of pacmania. Doodle Bug is fine if you must have a maze gobbler, but not brilliant." Videogiochi reviewed the game in issue #30. Commodore Horizons said: "Nicely programmed, and perfectly good fun." Commodore Computer Club gave it a rating of 8.
