In Computer Games Strategy Plus, Mike Robel found Across the Rhine a flawed but interest title, with a "very steep learning curve".[3] Writing for Computer Game Review, Frank Snyder called the game' "an impressive tank simulator that will certainly appease strategy sim fans". The magazine's Tasos Kaiafas was less positive, largely panning the game.[2]
