Reception
Multimedia Celebrity Poker won a negative review from PC Gamer US, whose writer Michael Wolf called it "just a poker sim with a gimmick" that "wears off as quickly as the video starts repeating itself". Donald St. John of Electronic Entertainment found the game "not good at all". Computer Gaming Worlds Alan Emrich was more positive, writing, "As a purely entertaining experience, which is clearly what New World had in mind for this product, it succeeds, but with considerable limitations."
