Reception
David James Ritchie reviewed Chitin: I in The Space Gamer No. 13, commenting that "For those who like their carnage in cardboard, Chitin: I is definitely an attractive brew."[1] Ritchie also reviewed the game in Ares Magazine #1, rating it a 5 out of 9 and with the comments "Fairly short and simple. Lots of fun. Those with a taste for the bizarre will appreciate their units' ability to eat friendly casualties."[2]
