Reception
Scott Osborne of GameSpot gave the game a 7.0 "Good" rating and said "Road to India is a fine example of old-school adventure gaming with a modern presentation." Tamara Schembri of GameSpy thought the game was imaginative and stylish, albeit not perfect. Staci Krause of IGN wrote that while the game was entertaining, it was too short for the experience to be wholly recommendable. Road to India was a nominee for GameSpots 2001 "Best Adventure Game" and The Electric Playgrounds 2001 "Best Adventure Game for PC" awards, but lost both prizes to Myst III: Exile.
