Electronic Gaming Monthly reviewers ranged from lukewarm to dismissing the Kid Dracula. One reviewer found it to be one of the better Game Boy titles they've played while another said it was not revolutionary, it applied tried and true concepts well. One reviewers said the control and graphics were above average while a third said the bosses were cute, while a third reviewer said "I really like [Kid Dracula], even though he looks quite unusual."
