Santulli Slant: There are few games in the world of classics that actually measure up to the standards set by contemporary game platforms. Whomper is one of them. This is one of the fastest games ever created (on the Intellivision? Yep!) yet it draws you in with its seemingly simple task. There are loads of different bugs that introduce themselves as you progress, and the action plays in the tradition of Missile Command. [Gr: 9, So: 9, Ga: 10, Ov: 9]

Periodical's review: Electronic Fun With Computers & Games magazine rated this game a 3.5 (out of 4). Listed as one of the "99 Favorite Classics" by Digital Press in 1997.
