Reception

edit

Roy Wagner reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "These games are pure and simple, yet still fun to play and enjoy."[1] Steve Panak, writing for ANALOG Computing, called the manual "superb," and concluded, "If you're interested in researching and reliving this portion of our recent history, Golden Oldies is a rich vein to tap."[2]
