InfoWorld in December 1993 approved of the colorful, cartoonish animation, but said that "the game gets old rather quickly", with inadequate documentation. The magazine recommeded Unnatural Selection to "those who have always wanted to play the part of a mad scientist".[5] A 1994 Computer Gaming World survey of strategic space games set in the year 2000 and later gave the game three-plus stars out of five, stating that it was "A different concept, almost carried off with success".[3]
