The game received high praise for its comedic value, and notably, the voice work by comedian Rik Mayall. Scott Stienberg of "IGN" praised the "goofy sense of humour and endearing antics" of the game, noting it as a strong contributor to the game. Frank Provo of "GameSpot" called the game's comedy as "drop-dead funny" and "sidesplitting", before stating the "all-around nuttiness" of the game lifted it into the same realm as "Bomberman", or "Worms". "GameRevolution" also stated that "many of the death quotes are just hilarious." Greg Orlando of "Next Generation" said, "War may be hell, but we want to load our plates with it."
