What the critics said
Mark Fujita of IGN gave the PS1 version a 2 out of 10, saying that "if you like the Powerpuff Girls and you buy this game, you will be very disappointed."
— IGN, 2001 (Mark Fujita)
A more positive review came from Suzi Sez of GameZone, who gave the PS1 version a 7 out of 10, saying it was "packed full of fast-paced and challenging action that plays out against a brightly colored cartoon backdrop."
— GameZone, 2001 (Suzi Sez)
Joe Rybicki of Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine gave the game a 1.5 out of 5, saying "it's all but impossible to land more than the occasional punch and kick before you get pummeled half to death. The game thus degenerates into pick up object, throw, repeat. Not exactly the most thrilling of experiences."
