Reception
Richard A. Edwards reviewed Stellar Track for The Space Gamer in August 1982, stating that "Unless you're willing to pay a high price for a remake of an old standard, pass this one up." A January 1983 review in Joystik magazine gave the game three out of five stars, saying that "It's a good game for non-violent strategists, but most others will probably prefer a game with a bit more action, like Star Raiders."
