When you consider the series is only a few years old, that’s kind of mind-blowing."[4] 148Apps wrote "Mikey Boots is a fine third installment in the excellent Mikey series of platformers."[5] IGN Italia said "Mikey is back with another cool gadget that leads to another great platform game. It's definitely a must have title for the genre."[6] Pocket Gamer wrote "A clever remix of what's come before, Mikey Boots might not be a platformer in the purest sense of the word, but it's definitely worth a look."[7]
