Chris Hind reviewedPerilous Forest in White Wolf #34, rating it a 3 out of 5 and stated that "In the introduction, GMsreceive an important warning: the 'Perilous Forest' is aptly named. Several sites therein are almost impossible for ordinaryplayer knights to overcome. Players ignorant of the terms 'surrender,' 'flee' and 'failure' will become frustrated in spots. For these gamers, Perilous Forest may not be worth its weight in librum."
