Reception

Bill Wallace reviewed Space Cowboy in Space Gamer No. 70.^[2] Wallace commented that "The action is idiotic, wooden, boring after only a couple of minutes of play. If you'd never seen Zaxxon the three-quarter perspective would be interesting, though it doesn't really contribute to play."^[2]
