Just Adventure Review
Rated A-. "Pompei may not advance the technology beyond that previously found in its most recent predecessors, Egypt, China, and Aztec, but it is every bit as enjoyable to play and most certainly has a compelling story, terrific graphics, and logical, fun puzzles." By Tom Houston.

Mr. Bill's Adventureland Review
"Perhaps its greatest value lies in the dawning realization, as you compare actual archeological photos to the game itself, that indeed what you are looking at in the game really is an exact re-creation of how that particular house or that particular object looked at the time."
