## Reception

[edit]

Jay Selover reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "That is the essence of Rommel: good scenarios, good development, good system."[1]

Brian Walker reviewed Panzer Battles and Rommel: Battles for North Africa for Games International magazine, and gave them both a rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "Despite their hard core titles, there is no reason why either of these games should be restricted to the wargames market. In essence, they are resource management games that should appeal to both military freaks as well as the rest of the gaming fraternity."[2]
