Reception

Lawrence Schick commented that "According to the author, the animal-classification system is 'Ambiguous yes, but confusing no.' Even the animals in this game are nice: tuataras, unlovely reptiles that emit loud croaks, are described as having their 'own brand of music and enjoy human choruses. They are musical themselves, so these quaint, lovable living fossils and humankind can make music together.' Touching, no? The black bear is the 'clown of the woods,' and the boomslang, one of the world's most venomous serpents, is a 'Tropical Non-Poisonous Snake.' Favorite quote: 'Dangerous animals can often bring exciting moments.'"
