Reception

Bruce Campbell reviewed Reign of the Red Dragon in Space Gamer No. 66.[2] Campbell commented that "If you enjoy this type of program, I recommend Reign of the Red Dragon as superior to some similar programs available in this price range."[2]

In the October 1982 issue of 80-U.S. Journal, David Tinis categorized the game as having similarities to Hellfire Warrior and concluded, "The graphics are well done and even though there is no sound, the game is very enjoyable. I would recommend it highly to anyone who enjoys a good adventure."[3]

gollark: Maybe I should try and stop hedging and actually directly say "no, you aren't".
gollark: People are probably going to be fine if they do not get firearms instruction immediately. It's probably... hairdressing-level importance.
gollark: I'm not sure about that.
gollark: Teaching what classes, school claßes?
gollark: The UK appears to be doing a similar thing, given that shops are open again now.
