## Reception

[edit]

Crash magazine said, "This Frenzy / Berserk game, unlike most of Softek’s other programs, is not very good. At the slowest of the nine skill levels it’s a bit boring, and at the fastest it’s quite meaningless. The usual format is followed; electrified walls, robots, unkillable ‘Raboks’ which leave exploding mines behind".[2]
