Reception
Carl Sargent reviewed the module for White Dwarf #87. Sargent noted that although the town map is moderately useful and the adventure's Arabic environment is detailed enough, the module is overall an "uninspired effort". He called the wilderness encounters pointless and silly, noted the existence of errors in the game statistics, and other flaws. Sargent felt that the only noteworthy thing about the module is Jeff Easley's "sexploitation cover".

“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks.
