Reception

The Smurfs Dance Party received an overall score of 3.0/10 from Gameplay Today, stating "The Smurfs Dance Party had the makings of a sleeper hit for the simple fact that it was a dance game being made by the people who brought us Just Dance and Just Dance 2. The lineage means nothing here though because this game couldn’t be farther from its successful "smurfless" cousins."
