Maureen Hiron, Inventor of Continuo, Cavendish and many many more games, played Trox at the 1997 British Toy & Hobby Association's annual show at Olympia, London, and said:

"I rather like this game - it has a simplicity that appeals - yet is strategically intriguing."

Nancy Wilkinson, the first ever BBC Mastermind champion in 1975, and Supermind of 1975, played Trox at the 1997 Mind Sports Olympiad, held at the Royal Festival Hall in London's South Bank, and commented:

"In my opinion, Trox is a sure-fire winner. It is absurdly simple - the rules can be mastered in minutes.....it has sufficient depth to keep two reasonably intelligent adults locked in a fascinating struggle for a considerable time.

....is light and small enough to fit into a pocket, so that it can be played anywhere. Trox is indeed a splendid invention."
