Reception edit
In the March 1993 edition of Dragon (Issue 191), Rick Swan admitted he was not a fan of the original Tales from the Floating Vagabond game, commenting that it "generated more groans than belly laughs, not a good sign from an RPG that lives and dies on the strength of its jokes." But he was pleasantly surprised by this book, saying, "the HyperCad supplement gets it right, collecting five delightfully goofy scenarios." Although Swan liked the high production values, he concluded "It's Craig Sheeley's nimble writing that makes HyperCad a keeper."[2]
