Computer Gaming World said "If you want to see how a classic boardgame should be converted to the computer, look no farther than AH's Wooden Ships and Iron Men, and pass this unhappy conflict by".[3]
Games Domain said "Third Reich, by its empirical nature, requires a precision which is absent in more "user-friendly" offerings, but that makes every successful move that much more rewarding".[5]
