William A. Barton reviewed Ordeal by Eshaar in The Space Gamer No. 46. [1] Barton commented that "Ordeal by Eshaar is undoubtedly the best non-GDW Traveller adventure published by anyone so far – and it ranks high among GDW's own offerings. Recommended." [1]
Bob McWilliams reviewed Ordeal by Eshaar for White Dwarf #31, giving it an overall rating of 6 out of 10 for the novice, and 7 for the expert, and stated that "Well produced and with plenty going on, the designers have provided referees with as much help as can be fitted in booklets of this size, gone into detail at points in the adventure where it's necessary and not filled out with 'chrome'."
