Reception
Bruce Campbell reviewed Reign of the Red Dragon in Space Gamer No. 66.[2] Campbell commented that "If you enjoy this type of program, I recommend Reign of the Red Dragon as superior to some similar programs available in this price range."[2]
In the October 1982 issue of 80-U.S. Journal, David Tinis categorized the game as having similarities to Hellfire Warrior and concluded, "The graphics are well done and even though there is no sound, the game is very enjoyable. I would recommend it highly to anyone who enjoys a good adventure."[3]
