- Absolute Playstation International - Review by Steve, 76%. "This game isn't terrible, just not great. ... By level six I was struggling to keep my eyes open and playing it to the end was a real chore."

- Active Network - PC review by Byron Hinson, 76%. "The Phantom Menace was clearly rushed onto shelves for to coincide with the release of the movie. It is very unfortunate as I feel that a few extra months of coding could have turned an average game into a pretty good one."

- CNN - Review by Andrew S. Bub. "There's little adventure and little action to be found."

- Computer Games Online - PC review by Tom Chick, 1.5/5. "Consider this little Phantom Menace distraction a lesson that some things are better left to Playstation owners."

- Echo Station - Review by James Zamkotowicz. "Out of any movie to-game-transfer, this may be the best I've seen."

- Game Revolution - PC review by Johnny Liu, B-. "The Phantom Menace successfully captures the movie, both good and bad."
www.game-revolution.com/games/pc/action/star_wars_phantom_menace.htm
- GameBlitz - Review by James Anthony. "Overall, The Phantom Menace delivers a really enjoyable way to venture into the Star Wars universe. It is fair to say that the game has been aimed at younger teens but it will appeal to all ages."

- Games Domain - Playstation review by Mike Smith. "Appropriately enough, when you consider the film on which it is based, this game is a meritless cash-in on a successful concept."
www.gamesdomain.com/playstation/reviews/Star_Wars_Episode_One_The_Phantom_Menace.html
- Games First - PC review by Greg Matthews, 3/5. "It's a shame that a title offering players so much possibility as a sort of hybrid gaming experience ends up being such an average product."
www.gamesfirst.com/reviews/greg/SWEp1/episode1.htm
- Gamezilla - PC review by Bill Hess, 81%. "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is just like the movie. Some people are going to love it and others are going to walk away from it with mixed reviews."
www.gamezilla.com/reviews/p/phantommenace.asp
- Glide Underground - PC review by Michael Ahlf, 4/5. "While it isn't the greatest game in terms of replayability and accessibility, I'd certainly suggest the game for anybody who likes games that don't require extremely tedious hours to beat."

- IGN - PC review by Tal Blevins, 62%. "The Phantom Menace is a mildly entertaining game that can be extremely frustrating and quirky at times."
pc.ign.com/articles/161/161411p1.html
- Intelligamer - PC review by Marilyn Caylor, 3/5. "The Phantom Menace is a wonderful way for Star Wars fans to re-live the movie. But it's only an average way for the action gamer to pass his or her time and adventure game enthusiasts should look elsewhere."
www.intelligamer.com/action/swep1tpm/swep1tpm.asp
- Just Adventure - PC review by Randy Sluganski, C. "I wish I could report that Phantom Menace is a good but failed try at an adventure game, but it is a sheep in wolf's clothing."
www.justadventure.com/reviews/Phantom_Menace/Phantom_Menace_Review.shtm
- Killjoys - Review, 80%. "An enjoyable action/adventure game although sadly not up to the standards of Jedi Knight."
www.killjoys.co.uk/reviews/phantomM/phantomM.htm
- PC Gamer - Review by Matthew Pierce, 79%. "As an interactive guide to the story-line and characters of Episode I, it's invaluable. As an involving, exciting, and ground-breaking game in its own right, it's lacking the innovation and high-production values synonymous with LucasArts' previous titles."
www.pcgamer.co.uk/games/gamefile_review_page.asp?item_id=1130
- Pixel Fiction - Playstation review by Earl Green, 2/4. "Oh, what a frustrating game ... The game is played out from a strange kind of Steadicam-hovering-somewhere-overhead perspective, and the movement can become quite distracting, almost dizzying at times."
www.thelogbook.com/pf/ep1.htm
- Science Fiction Weekly - PC review by Victor Lucas, B-. "Plagued with bugs and enough quirks to give stone-faced Qui-Gon Jinn a nervous tic, The Phantom Menace CD-ROM is still fast-paced and smart enough to keep players glued to their computer chairs."
www.scifi.com/sfw/issue112/games.html
- The Electric Playground - PC review by Victor Lucas, 7/10. "As a game, The Phantom Menace takes its cue straight from the movie; it's fun but it's far from perfect."
www.elecplay.com/review.html?article=1133
- ZDNet - Review by Michael E. Ryan. "The game can be extremely challenging, and for some reason you cannot alter the difficulty setting, but The Phantom Menace is a solid game despite this."
