BattleTech: The Crescent Hawks' Revenge reviews

PC Review (1992): "Based on a highly popular futuristic combat board game, Infocom's Battletech showed in no uncertain terms that there was potentially more to that late, great company than text adventures. Here huge mechanised monsters - Mechs - stride the land battling out with huge and powerful weapons. But this isn't just a shoot'em up. There is a large degree of strategy involved."

Dragon (1991): "This game is good but is not the same as the first BattleTech game. Players wanting a role-playing game might be disappointed, but war gamers will thoroughly enjoy the variety of 'Mechs and vehicles available as well as the needed strategies for combat success. Infocom has produced a highly enjoyable strategic war game that happens to possess a great story line as well."
