Video Games praised the Intellivision version of the game, stating that "while the VCS version is a very good TV-game, this one is even better".

Demon Attack won the 1983 Arcade Award for "Best Videogame of the Year", with the judges commenting that the game had "turned out to be yardstick against which gamers measured the quality of each new cartridge during 1982".

It sold over 2 million copies, making it the third best selling game on the system that was not an arcade port behind Pitfall! and E.T..
