Many penguins died to bring word that Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator's single joke soon gets old.
Here is a sandbox like no other. Create massive battles with absolutely no limits. Want to see 10,000 chickens fight an army of Romans?? Sure, why not. Want to see a company of WW2 U.S soldiers fight 11,000 Medieval soldiers?? There are simply no limits to the carnage you can achieve in UEBS.

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players noting that while the visuals can be impressive, they often suffer from optimization issues, leading to poor performance even on high-end PCs. Some users appreciate the game's ability to handle large-scale battles, but many criticize the graphics as outdated or mediocre, suggesting that they detract from the overall experience. Overall, while there are moments of good graphical quality, the game's performance and visual fidelity seem to vary significantly based on hardware capabilities.
“This game has awesome graphics and amazing characters, but can you add Bruce Lee or some characters from animes.”
“The graphics are very nice, the maps are great.”
“Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator can handle so many entities that it would only have been a dream only 1 year ago, and the graphics are absolutely amazing.”
“The graphics are alright, but on a closer look, they are bad.”
“The game doesn’t look amazing texture-wise, unblended PBRs and scattered Unity store assets thrown all over the place, but considering the sheer scale of the battles (as they’re the main draw of the game) you tend to forget about the shoddy art styles and see things just as numbers and figures.”
“The graphics optimization allows for massive battles even on 2nd and 3rd tier computers.”

The game lacks a traditional narrative, with many users noting the absence of a campaign, missions, or objectives, making it feel more like a sandbox simulator than a story-driven experience. While some players enjoy creating their own narratives or scenarios, the overall consensus is that the game would benefit from a structured storyline or mission mode to enhance engagement. Those seeking a rich story or character development are advised to look elsewhere, as the game primarily focuses on action and simulation.
“This story is why I must give this game a hearty 10/10 for its amazing story arc, well done devs.”
“The story then begins to branch from reality as this last battle sets in motion a chain of events that ends with the unraveling of the fabric of reality.”
“My story started simple enough with a battle between Persians and Spartans.”
“There isn't really a game/story here, it's just a simulator sandbox for action.”
“No campaign or achievements, no missions or anything else to target.”
“If you're looking for a game with story, characters, missions, then this is not for you.”

The game's replayability is a mixed bag, with some players finding it infinitely replayable due to the endless possibilities in creating battles, while others criticize it for lacking content and becoming stale quickly. Many reviews highlight the need for more diverse maps, units, and modding options to enhance replay value, suggesting that the current limitations significantly hinder long-term enjoyment. Overall, the potential for replayability exists, but it largely depends on future updates and user-generated content.
“Definitely a high replay value once you begin to understand the ultimate endless possibilities within this game.”
“The replay value is pretty substantial and each fight can have a different outcome.”
“This game has infinite replayability once you add an astonishing amount of models, maps, terrains, and just a few event triggers per map.”
“The game is decent and I did enjoy it, but the only problem is that the mod doesn't work at all. The game lacks content and is hard to replay again, and the performance runs poorly.”
“There is absolutely zero replay value; it gets stale after 30 minutes of playing. It almost feels like a free-to-play game, but instead, you actually have to pay for it. The trailer made it seem exciting, but the fights are repetitive and all end the same way.”
“Once the 'wow factor' wears off, you notice there's not a whole lot more to do or see, resulting in low replayability.”
