in the Fast Lane an overall score of 88%, calling it a "good example" of how to implement the gameplay of a board game on a computer. The One praises Jones in the Fast Lane's graphics, music and gameplay, expressing that gameplay has a "generally good feeling", noting the game's digitized actors and the varying music for each game location, furthermore stating that Jones has "first-class presentation". The One praises the computer AI, saying that it offers "a challenge", as well as Jones' multiplayer, expressing that "Playing the game with others incites plenty of excitement .... It's this kind of intensely competitive atmosphere that makes Jones a winner." Strategy Pluss Brian Walker wrote, "As in most Sierra games, the joy comes from the process of discovery, and Jones is no exception to this." He considered the game "fun, and easy to play", but found it overpriced given its simplicity. Walker summarized it as "one of life's less essential purchases." Contemporary reviews describe the game as a "humorous romp through modern life" and praised the graphics and clever wordplay, but noted it was essentially a computerised board game.
