Reception[]

Elisabeth Barrington, reviewing The Tower of Ulission in The Space Gamer No. 28, notes that the adventure is well mapped out and presented, and contains exhaustive material for dungeon masters to use in their descriptions, but that the internal arrangement of the material could lead to some confusion. She concludes her review by saying, "Even so, DMs of all levels of skill should find Tower of Ulission relatively simple, whether to adapt to their own tastes or to play as it stands. The game flows well and requires little more from the DM than reading the booklet."[2]
