In a 1985 survey of computer wargames for Current Notes, M. Evan Brooks called War in Russia the definitive monster wargame and "another essential addition to the Wargamer's Library", despite noting the challenge of its large scope and the flaws with its artificial intelligence.[4]
In his 1989 survey of computer wargames, J. L. Miller of Computer Play recommended War in Russia, which he found highly detailed and "much more complex" than Strategic Studies Group's competing product Russia: The Great War in the East 1941–1945. However, he said that it contained "more flaws as well" and noted that "the AI does not handle the later stages of the war well".[6]
LegacyEdit
According to Computer Gaming World's Alan Emrich, War in Russia "was the first monster wargame for the computer, a triumph of scale, subject matter and head-to-head play via e-email."[5]War in Russia was among the first inductees into Computer Gaming World's "Hall of Fame" section in 1988.[7] In 1996, Computer Gaming World declared War in Russia the 126th-best computer game ever released.[2] The magazine's wargame columnist Terry Coleman named it his pick for the 14th-best computer wargame released by late 1996.[8]
