Next Generation reviewed the PC version of the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that "When was the last time you saw a real CEO (or anyone for that matter) try to get the busses and trains to run efficiently? This isn't a bad game, but it just doesn't give a good feeling of cohesion."{{cite magazine |title=Finals |magazine=Next Generation |issue=11 |publisher=Imagine Media |date=November 1995 |page=179}} Computer Game Review was negative toward the game; the magazine summarized, "Playability had to be sacrificed to hire known actors for the video clips."
