Pocketgamer gave it 8/10, writing "If you own an Android handset then this is a near-essential download; let’s just hope that Bizarre Creations’s lawyers don’t strike from beyond the grave to block its distribution. " Knowyourmobile gave it 5/5 stars, commenting "Not only is it a fitting tribute to one of the best twin-stick blasters ever coded, it’s also one of the most addictive Android action titles we’ve had the pleasure of experiencing this year." DriodLife said " It takes the winning formula of the Geometry Wars series and mercilessly rips it off; I don’t think there’s any doubt about that. However, it replicated the dual joystick experience of an Xbox 360 controller quite well through two amazing responsive on-screen control knobs. "

SlideToPlay said " PewPew 2 is a perfect placeholder for Geometry Wars on the iPhone. " AppSpy said " Without a doubt, PewPew 2 goes above and beyond the first game making this an easy choice for fans, but if you're still hesitating on buying this excellent game then you can always try the first game for free! " 148apps wrote " Without trying to sound too positive about the game, I am thrilled that someone is finally trying to break the dual stick genre out of its little box. ", TouchArcade said " The current version of PewPew 2 is one of the best dual-stick shooters available, and is well deserving of its modest price tag. "
