Reception
[edit]Brian J. Murphy of Creative Computing praised Andromeda Conquest for its playability and multi-player mode but criticized the solitaire game, describing it as "dull".[5] Computer Gaming World's Floyd Mathews praised the game as "relatively simple, but exciting".[6] However, in 1992, in its retrospective survey of science fiction games, the magazine gave the title two of five stars.[7]
