The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized, with many players expressing that it requires an excessive time commitment, likening it to needing "a second life." Users find the battle setup process tedious and frustrating, particularly due to a poorly designed UI and limitations in troop placement, which detracts from the overall experience and makes it feel repetitive. While some acknowledge that improvements may be on the horizon, the current state is seen as lacking innovation and enjoyment.

The monetization aspect of the game has been heavily criticized by users, who overwhelmingly describe it as a "cash grab." Many reviewers express disappointment in the developers for abandoning previous projects and accuse them of selling a sequel that lacks new features while rehashing old content, leading to a lack of value for the price paid. Overall, players advise caution, suggesting that the game feels exploitative rather than genuinely developed.
- “Buyer beware because this game reeks of a cash grab.”
- “These developers are liars and cash grabbers; they abandoned their recent project known as The Black Masses even though they promised to work on it once UEBs2 was released. So far, no updates, and that game and the 20 dollars we spent on it were wasted.”
- “I hope it improves over the years, but so far it looks like the cash grab idea to sell exactly the same game as before with fewer features and pretend to improve it by adding old units that were already there in UEBs1.”

The game's replayability is a mixed bag; while it offers significant freedom for creating epic battles and has potential for depth through customization and future updates, many players feel it currently lacks longevity once initial ideas are exhausted. Technical issues and a bare-bones experience at launch have also contributed to disappointment, though the promise of mods and ongoing improvements may enhance replay value over time. Overall, while there are elements that could foster replayability, the current state of the game leaves much to be desired.
- “The game's enormous replay value comes from the freedom to create epic battles according to one's own imagination.”
- “The depth of play and customization options offer tremendous replay value, while improvements in AI and game mechanics indicate potential for an even more challenging gaming experience.”
- “The graphics have been significantly improved, and the addition of new units and factions adds even more depth and replayability to the game.”
- “For example, there is a neat fluid system where you can create a lake of blood from fallen warriors or recreate the great flood with god powers and a new 'flash flood' weather option; however, this game still severely lacks replay value.”
- “No, but for massive battle simulation it is the best by far, though bare bones at the moment. I can see this game getting more and more updates and gaining even more replayability over the coming months, but as of right now, the price is a bit high for what the game offers.”
- “The trailer was also misleading - we saw Chuck Norris and John Wick, neither of which are playable characters in this game.”
