  ## Reception
  
  In the September–October 1989 edition of Games International (Issue #9), Mike Jarvis admitted that "I'm not greatly enamoured with this product. It's not that it is a bad scenario as such; merely that it isn't particularly original." Jarvis also found the adventure lacked a "superhero atmosphere", and the pre-generated characters provided were not a good fit for the adventure. Jarvis concluded by giving the adventure a poor rating of 2 out of 5, saying, "This is a lacklustre product [...] As a superhero adventure it didn't inspire me, and probably won't thrill your players either."
