Elisabeth Barrington reviewed the 1980 "Player Character Record Sheets" for "Basic D&D" in "The Space Gamer" No. 35. She felt that "They are very neatly printed in large type and fairly well organized. There is room for all the numbers and other information necessary, and a box for your character's sketch or symbol." She did note that "However, this is for really "simple" D&D players: character class is defined as fighter, magic-user, thief, cleric, "dwarf", "elf", or "halfling". The section, 'to-hit roll needed,' does not provide for differing types of weapons - just 10 numbers for the respective amour classes." Barrington concluded her review by saying it was "Recommended for Basic D&D gamers."
