Absolute Playstation International - http://www.absolute-playstation.com/api_review/rstarwarspm.htm
Review by Steve, 76%. "This game isn't terrible, just not great. ... By level six I was struggling to keep my eyes open and playing it to the end was a real chore."

PC review by Byron Hinson, 76%. "The Phantom Menace was clearly rushed onto shelves for to coincide with the release of the movie. It is very unfortunate as I feel that a few extra months of coding could have turned an average game into a pretty good

Review by Andrew S. Bub. "There's little adventure and little action to be found."

Games First - http://www.gamesfirst.com/reviews/greg/SWEp1/episode1.htm
PC review by Greg Matthews, 3/5. "It's a shame that a title offering players so much possibility as a sort of hybrid gaming experience ends up being such an average product."

Gamezilla - http://www.gamezilla.com/review.aspx?review=7712
PC review by Bill Hess, 81%. "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is just like the movie. Some people are going to love it and others are going to walk away from it with mixed reviews."

PC review by Michael Ahlf, 4/5. "While it isn't the greatest game in terms of replayability and accessibility, I'd certainly suggest the game for anybody who likes games that don't require extremely tedious hours to beat."

Just Adventure - http://www.justadventure.com/reviews/Phantom_Menace/Phantom_Menace_Review.shtm
PC review by Randy Sluganski, C. "I wish I could report that Phantom Menace is a good but failed try at an adventure game, but it is a sheep in wolf's clothing."

Pixel Fiction - http://www.thelogbook.com/pf/ep1.htm
Playstation review by Earl Green, 2/4. "Oh, what a frustrating game ... The game is played out from a strange kind of Steadicam-hovering-somewhere-overhead perspective, and the movement can become quite distracting, almost dizzying at times."

Science Fiction Weekly - http://www.scifi.com/sfw/issue112/games.html
PC review by Victor Lucas, B-. "Plagued with bugs and enough quirks to give stone-faced Qui-Gon Jinn a nervous tic, The Phantom Menace CD-ROM is still fast-paced and smart enough to keep players glued to their computer chairs."

The Electric Playground - http://www.elecplay.com/reviews_article.php?article=1133
PC review by Victor Lucas, 7/10. "As a game, The Phantom Menace takes its cue straight from the movie; it's fun but it's far from perfect."
