Reception

Marcus L. Rowland reviewed The Breeder Bombs for White Dwarf #62, rating it 7/10 overall.[2] He stated: "There are several tricks and twists, which lead to an amusing and apocalyptic conclusion."[2] Rowland reviewed the adventures The Breeder Bombs, Time Trap, and Murderworld! together, and declared that "All three adventures work reasonably well, but stress combat above role-play or campaign development. None give any opportunity for the characters to use their secret identities (an important feature of the game rules), all are extremely violent."[2]
