In the Sixth Doctor novel Business Unusual by Gary Russell which gave Melanie Bush a belated introduction story , the Nestenes used computer games and plastic toys in another bid for world conquest. This novel also featured the Time Lords launching an assault on the Nestene homeworld Polymos, which may or may not be connected to the war mentioned in "Rose".

In the Doctor Who Annual , an article written by Russell T Davies mentions the loss of the Nestene Consciousness's planets during the Time War, and states that it "found itself mutating under temporal stress".

Howe and Stephen James Walker called it a "strong start" to the season, though they commented that the story was not as effective as Spearhead from Space in "depicting the threat of the Autons. Howe and Walker also praised Letts' direction, though they found that the over-use of CSO caused some scenes to "look false and strained". However, he noted that there were "plot holes" and "gaudy early '70s production values". Sinnott particularly praised the Doctor and the Master, as well as the "subtle humor". He was positive toward the family tone, Jo, and the Master but felt that it "lacks some of the narrative cohesion" of Spearhead from Space and "the Autons are reduced to playing the role of foot soldiers to the Master".
