Reception
David Long reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "SSI has done a superb job on this sequel to GG. Most role playing games have a rather abstract combat resolution sequence. GA has a complete game within a game for combat resolution, along with as complicated a series of adventures as you could want." Norman J. Banduch reviewed Galactic Adventures in Space Gamer No. 66. Banduch commented that "Galactic Adventures is a very fine game. It has excellent graphics, a wealth of options, and the game works. The price is high, but the cost per hour becomes very low. I found that Galactic Adventures is not a game that gets old fast. It is an excellent addition to almost any adventure gamer's computer library."
