Ends of Empire was well received by critics, who considered it a bold and fitting ending to the Wraith: The Oblivion game line; [7] [8] [1] [5] in his book Designers & Dragons, writer Shannon Appelcline called it a dramatic finale, and almost unprecedented as a resolution to a tabletop role-playing game plot, only preceded by TSR, Inc.'s campaign setting revamps in 1989 and by West End Games' ending to Torg in 1995.
