Reception

Lee Brimmicombe-Wood reviewed Crisis on Cloud City for Games International magazine, and gave it a rating of 4 out of 10, and stated that "The card deck and West End's usual excellent production make Crisis an attractive package. I just wonder, though, when they are going to bring out more scenarios that ring true to the Star Wars universe, and don't just ape other SF games and themes."[1]
