The Genesis version received mediocre reviews. Critics widely praised the bright, colorful graphics[3][4][5] and usage of old Warner Bros. cartoons and characters,[3][4][5] though some criticized that the controls make navigating certain areas frustrating.[3][5] However, reviews generally concluded that while the game is competent in most respects, it lacks any major innovation to draw the interest of anyone but hardcore Warner Bros. fans.[3][4][5]
GamePro gave the Game Gear version a brief negative review, criticizing the gameplay, music, and particularly the difficult-to-see graphics, commenting that “signs, enemies, and items are so tiny you’ll need a magnifying glass”.[6]
Game Informer gave the game an overall score of 7.25 out of 10 praising how sega did very well capturing the spirit of the cartoon and keeping the gameplay fast and random concluding: “Double Trouble is fairly perplexing at first, but once mastered it’s a blast for all, especially the gaming youth!”[7]
