CNET said "Other makers of educational software should take a lesson from Zurk's Rainforest Lab's book, using facts about an interesting topic to stimulate creative writing and critical thinking. On the other hand, the richness of the computer as a learning medium can certainly be put to better use than it is in this program"

The game was given an Excellence Award by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.
