Aggregating review website GameRankings gave the 3DO version 72.50% based on 2 reviews,[8] the Sega Saturn version 67.00% based on 1 review,[9] the SNES version 55.00% based on 1 review,[10] the Game Boy Color version 54.00% based on 3 reviews,[11] the Game Boy Advance version 50.00% based on 1 review[12] and the PlayStation version 49.25% based on 4 reviews.[13] Sega Saturn Magazine gave the Saturn version a 70%, calling it "a decent enough effort with what is a particularly sugary film, spoilt by some frustrating flaws in the gameplay and action that is too repetitive."[14] Their next issue printed a retraction, admitting that Interplay had not sent them a review copy of Casper, and that the review was actually based on an unfinished version of the game.[15]
