Rated A-. "Pompei may not advance the technology beyond that previously found in its most recent predecessors, Egypt, China, and Aztec, but it is every bit as enjoyable to play and most certainly has a compelling story, terrific graphics, and logical, fun puzzles." By Tom Houston.
Reviewer finds TimeScape realistically depicted, poorly written, and frustrating.
"Perhaps its greatest value lies in the dawning realization, as you compare actual archeological photos to the game itself, that indeed what you are looking at in the game really is an exact re-creation of how that particular house or that particular object looked at the time."
Rated D by Ray Ivey. "Pompei committed a game's cardinal sin: it bored me to tears."
"Pompeii is a game to be lingered over... To get everything out of it, you need to stop and look and - dare I say it - perhaps even learn." By Steve Ramsey.
