Ninja Boy 2 was reviewed by four critics in Famitsu. Two reviewers found the narrative poor, noting a forced storyline and poor dialogue. Hirokazu Hamamura commented in the magazine that the puzzle solving elements were much more simplistic than other RPGs of the era.

Reviews in Famitsu and English video game magazines GB Action and GamePro commented on the graphics. Reviewers found the graphics hard to see, especially on the mini-map. The GB Action reviewer found the game ultimately to be "sad and boring" with poor quality graphics. While GamePro found the game to have above-average visuals and sounds, they did find the map scenes hard to see but easy to travel in.
