Reception

Lynn Willis reviewed Outreach in The Space Gamer No. 9.[1] Willis concluded that "Outreach is highly playable and wildly variable. Counting time in centuries, it is logical, realistic [...] and evocative. The components are a very high quality."[1]

Eric Goldberg reviewed Outreach in Ares Magazine #1, rating it a 6 out of 9.[2] Goldberg commented that "Outreach has enough play value to entertain the first few times it is played, but then degenerates into a mathematical puzzle. Still, the ideas and general direction of the design allow the enterprising player to design a much better game."[2]
