In the 2014 book Designers & Dragons: The '80s, game historian Shannon Appelcline noted that Steve Jackson Games decided in the early 1990s to cease publishing adventures, and therefore "SJG was now putting out standalone GURPS books rather than the more complex tiered book lines. This included more historical subgenre books. Some, such as GURPS Camelot (1991) and GURPS China (1991), were clearly sub-subgenres, while others like GURPS Old West (1991) and GURPS Middle Ages I (1992) covered genres notably missing before this point."^[2]: 45

In the February 1993 edition of Dragon (Issue #190), Rick Swan found the "attention to detail is impressive", but thought that it "often reads more like a term paper instead of a collection of neat ideas the designers couldn't wait to share." Swan noted that the book lacked both game-mastering advice and a full-length adventure. He concluded by giving the book an average rating of 3 out of 5, saying that the book "skimps on staging notes and the details of day-to-day existence that might help players bring their characters to life."^[1]
