Reception

A 1993 survey of wargames gave V for Victory III: Market Garden four stars.[1] Another reviewer criticized Market Garden as buggy and flawed.[2]

In 1994, the editors of PC Gamer US wrote, "The V for Victory series is quite simply the most playable war games available, with an easy-to-master interface and admirable depth of game play." They continued, "We single out Utah Beach because it launched the series — but by all means, check out Velikiye Luki, Gold*Juno*Sword, and Market Garden, too."[3]

The V for Victory series collectively won Computer Games Strategy Plus's 1992 "Game of the Year" award. The magazine's Brian Walker wrote that it "achieved what many computer wargames have been trying to do for years: successfully convert a board wargame onto computer." Computer Games likewise named it the year's best wargame.[4]
