Homeworld is the final part of The Mechanoid Invasion trilogy, but was intended to be used a stand-alone game in which the characters that survived so far will journey to the Mechanoid homeworld. [1]

Reception

William A. Barton reviewed Homeworld in The Space Gamer No. 60. [1] Barton commented that "Even with its flaws and lack of slick production, Homeworld is a useful addition to the Mechanoid Invasion - and much superior to the interim Journey ." [1]

Ken Rolston reviewed Homeworld for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "Alignment and insanity are not essential components in the Mechanoid system, as they are in D&D and Call Of Cthulhu, respectively, and their addition to the rules in Homeworld is of relatively little importance in increasing the value of the original concept of The Mechanoid Invasion." [2]
