IGN	5.2/10[2]
GameSpot	3.7/10[5]

GameSpot gave the game a score of 3.7 out of 10 stating"Despite its simplicity, B-17 Gunner could have been an enjoyable, if mindless, arcade romp that you'd fire up for 20 minutes here and there to shoot down some planes and bomb some targets. Unfortunately, B-17 Gunner's numerous problems make it a product with little value, even at its reduced retail cost of $20"^[5]
