Robo-Squash was met with mostly positive reception.[16] Computer and Video Games reviewed the game in their March 1991 issue giving it a score of 70 out of 100.[3] Julian Boardman reviewed the game for Raze in their April 1991 issue. In his short notes he wrote that the game was "addictive" with "engrossing gameplay", giving a score of 82%.[13] In 1999, Robert A. Jung reviewed the game for IGN and gave it a 7 out of 10, calling it "a good, slightly above-average game. Playing it by yourself is fine, since the difficulty levels let you tune the computer to your skills. I suspect, though, that playing it with another person would be more fun. Best for players who are looking for a sports-type game for the Lynx."[5]
