Reception
Bruce F. Webster reviewed Space and Sport Games in The Space Gamer No. 35. Webster commented that “There are nine games in all on this diskette, all of the same quality. I suspect all nine were placed there because the folks at Creative Computing couldn’t justify selling them in smaller groups. I’m not sure they can justify selling them in this large group. Don’t buy it.”
