Brett Alan Weiss of AllGame rated the game.com version three stars out of five and wrote, "Considering the inherent limitations of a black-and-white handheld system, the designers of Williams Arcade Classics for the game.com did about as good a job as could be expected with this compilation. [...] The games look a lot like the originals, but much of the animation is choppy. The sound effects are incredibly faithful to the source material." Weiss also stated that the game.com version "does a hit-and-miss job of cramming five all-time greats into one tiny cartridge. [...] The most impressive thing about this collection is its loud and proud sound effects."
