The gameplay is generally described as fun and engaging, with a solid turn-based strategy foundation and appealing graphics. However, many players find it simplistic, repetitive, and lacking depth, often criticizing the reliance on gacha mechanics and microtransactions that detract from the overall experience. While some enjoy the quick pick-up-and-play aspect, others feel that the game fails to capture the complexity and creativity of the original Warhammer tabletop experience.
- “I enjoy the concept, and the gameplay is original, with the combat AI being pretty clever.”
- “A solid tutorial system makes it easy to pick up and then the fun really begins, with rewarding character customization and engaging gameplay to drop in and out of when you are on the go.”
- “The graphics are great, the gameplay is challenging yet fair, and best of all the ads aren't invasive.”
- “However, the battle mechanics are rather boring and missions lack depth.”
- “Gameplay is also rudimentary and nothing about it is unique to the license, not enough room for creatively tackling maps (maybe add more abilities, ways to engage enemies?) also, they don't front load progression, it's grindy from the go so doesn't feel rewarding in my opinion.”
- “Good graphics but the gameplay is repetitive and boring after a while.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players labeling it a "cynical cash grab" due to excessive ads and high-priced in-game purchases.

Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative, overshadowing the gameplay and enjoyment.
- “The app is decent, no major problems, gameplay wise is okay, but it is so geared towards microtransactions and loot boxes that they get in the way.”
- “It's a free-to-play mobile game with completely optional microtransactions, but past that it has the aesthetics of Silver Tower and seems fun enough to casually play.”

- “Latest update has, unfortunately, changed the whole game to a cynical cash grab.”
- “Looking at the in-game store, they sell packages of resources for just under £100; this is a shameless cash grab using an amazing IP.”
- “Everything is set up to try to get you to pay money or watch a ton of ads for not much loot.”
