Reception

Steve List reviewed Supervillains in The Space Gamer No. 56.[1] List commented that "While super-powered villains are the stuff of comic books, a game about them must be designed at a level demonstrating more sophistication than a comic book. SV fails in this regard. Mr. Register has a vivid imagination, but has failed to translate his ideas into a coherent form. Coupled with this is the typical lack of care shown by TFG in proofreading, editing, and organizing their products. The combination is deadly. Avoid Supervillains."[1]
