"Playboy" gave the PS2 version a score of 85% and said that it "captures aging Marx Brothers appeal, but does so with modern-day flair. From battles against undead cutthroats to talking skulls, voodoo women and Monkey Kombat mini-games, you'll never know what to expect next. Then again, provided it's good times that come to mind, you won't be far off the mark. So set a course for the local retailer ASAP, matey - your ship's just come in." "Maxim", however, gave the same version six out of ten and said, "If you’re keen on tasteless, tongue-in-cheek jokes, smooth sailing lies ahead." Jeff Lundrigan reviewed the PlayStation 2 version of the game for "Next Generation", rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "The puzzles are as inscrutable as ever, but if you have the patience, this is one terrifically entertaining game."
