Earl Buckelew wrote in Compute!'s Gazette: "while it's designed with younger players in mind, Stocker has enough thrills to provide the rest of us with hours of fun. With skill and determination, you may even see the checkered flag in California."Bill Kunkel for Ahoy! wrote, "Stocker is a quaint game, almost like an antique that's been painfully restored using state-of-the-art techniques."
Paul A. Hughes for Info wrote, "The whole game is simple, including the graphics, sound, and game play. You will probably play this game a few times and then put it away."
Scott Wasser for Run magazine wrote, "at home, where only boredom limits the number of times a game can be played, Stocker reaches that limit fairly quickly. So, unless you're someone who couldn't get enough of Stocker in the arcades, I'd recommend you save your software quarters for something else."
