Goldchester: More Adventures in High Fantasy (1982) Reception In the June/July 1980 edition of White Dwarf (Issue #19), Don Turnbull did not think this new role-playing system stood a chance in the over-crowded marketplace altready dominated by AD&D, saying, "in the case of any new role-playing game nowadays, any rating on review has to take account, not just of objective judgment of the game but also of its likely impact on a market which is already dominated [...] Whether you are likely to enjoy the game-system is not entirely the point: the question is - will the game-system contain enough material which fits your personal taste to the extent that it tempts you away from whatever system you are using at present [...] I believe that the High Fantasy rules are too lightweight for that.

If you need more than that you might want to wait for High Fantasy II, or stick with the games you already play." Anders Swenson reviewed High Fantasy for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "High Fantasy is a
