Aktueller Software Markt said the game is a technical masterpiece but the gameplay has too little variety. Amiga Joker [de] recommended the game to action game fans but said casual gamers should try it before buying. The Games Machine compared the game unfavourable to Sega's Alien Syndrome and in conclusion said: "Leave this on the shelves; give it a miss." ACE summarized: "Leavin' Teramis doesn't attempt to be original in any way. What it does do very well is provide shoot 'em up addicts with a very humorous, colourful, and fast way to while away a good few hours." ST Action compared the game to Alien Syndrome, Commando, and Gauntlet and said: "Teramis is a polished hybrid that possesses attractive graphics and more importantly, that "just-one-more-go" feel."
