Reception
Bruce F. Webster reviewed Outpost Gamma in The Space Gamer No. 44. Webster commented that "I recommend Outpost Gamma without reservations. Like Ogre and GEV, you will get far more than your money's worth."

Steve List reviewed Outpost Gamma in Ares Magazine #12 and commented that "its system is not one which admits (or encourages) developing home-brew scenarios as does Star Soldier. Outpost Gamma is not worth a visit."

In a retrospective review of Outpost Gamma in Black Gate, Sean McLachlan said "While the game balance was somewhat poor, we enjoyed playing. If we play this one again, though, I'll have to come up with a more balanced scenario."
