Reception
Ken Rolston reviewed Queen's Harvest for Dragon magazine in July 1991. He felt that Queen's Harvest is more elaborate than King's Festival in its role-playing and tactical challenges, and that the basic dungeon presented had a smart design and interesting story. With regard to the portion of the adventure involving the siege of an enemy stronghold, he felt the "clear and detailed discussion and organization of the defenders' tactics and motives" creates the opportunity for players to incite "discord among defenders". He did point out a minor flaw: there is no tactical map of the Queen's Keep. He concluded the review by stating that King's Festival and Queen's Harvest "are absolutely the best introductory adventures in print for D&D-game-style fantasy role-playing games (FRPGs). Presented simply and clearly enough for young folks, these adventures are also challenging and entertaining enough for experienced gamers."

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
