Los Angeles Times said " That didn’t surprise the folks at Sanctuary Woods, who say the program is especially attractive to girls who tend to shy away from the shoot-’em-up type games. Even my wife, Patti, is impressed--a rare event when it comes to computer games--by the music and scenery."[7]
Newsday said "It's a fascinating and challenging game that familiarizes kids with maps and strategic planning"[8]
The game was given a silver medal at the AVC's Interactive CINDY Awards.[9]
