[4][5] Hebereke's Popoitto received generally positive reviews, and was mostly recommended for fans of the puzzle genre.
In Japan, Hebereke Station Popoitto was re-released in 1999 under the SunKore Best label.
[6][8] What sets Hebereke's Popoitto apart from other similar games is that moving creatures, named Poro-porous, will float suspended in mid-air on the playing field.
[5] Hebereke's Popoitto was featured in several European video game magazines, and received mixed to positive reviews.
A critic from Sega Saturn Magazine disliked that the special moves in the two-player mode were too difficult to obtain.
In addition, the critic thought that the erratic movement of the Poro-porous made it too hard to plan ahead.
A reviewer from the French video-gaming magazine Super Power considered the Poro-poro addition to be charming, but noted that Hebereke's Popoitto wasn't that strong graphically.
