Good

Loveits

It’s an okay game

Okay so yes it’s a good game and the trade stock market value is a little predictable but that’s great the only problem with this game which makes it to easy is the fact that you can’t join a gang or work for the mafia or stuff like that like you have to do tasks which will help you build your empire that would make plenty of sense and maybe a casino or a form of gambling like let this game be played almost like but life and honestly you need a house to buy instead of just cars, storage, and businesses like I’m bored and a millionaire a 57 and that’s young. I want more stuff to do add a manifold like let people gamble on sports and stuff and you can meet new people like add more stuff and you can meet criminals by choices throughout the game but random games but make it cost money

Response from developer

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Urban Drug Empire 2 has only recently launched, and this is just the beginning. We agree the late game needs more depth and more meaningful ways to use your wealth. Empire management, crews, new criminal activities and further progression are areas we plan to expand through future updates. We’ve also noted your ideas around gangs, properties, casinos and random encounters.

Honestly

A very good title, first one was awesome and addicting and this new version is even better. Only thing I’d add is some music? I’d love to add some of my own if the developers are interested.

Response from developer

Thank you for the 5 stars! We’re really glad you enjoyed the first game and think the sequel is even better. Music and sound are areas we want to improve in a future audio pass. We’d be happy to hear your work, so please contact us through the developer email listed on the App Store page.

Great game

Games great haven’t played much yet but I can say I definitely will I love the first one and can’t wait to see what’s in this

Response from developer

Thank you! We’re glad you loved the first game and are enjoying the sequel so far. More content and improvements are planned for future updates!

Cash grab 101

The first one was great reasonably priced in apps. But this one just begs to take your money. Sad thing is I even been following and waiting for the release.. pre ordered and everything. I’m just going to continue the first one. I guess it’s just true, every game after the first one is garbage. I don’t mind supporting developers.. but uh this time nope. I get it you don’t have to pay…. Blah blah. Just go back to the first one for 1 time purchase.

Thanks for the honest feedback, and especially for supporting us since the first game. We’re already working on changes that will allow players to earn Gold through progression UDE2 is going to keep evolving through updates, and hopefully we can win you back.

Good game but

Good game but I’m upset I didn’t get my promised items from buying premium in the previous game

Response from developer

Thanks for the rating we are working on it!

Unpolished & False Promises

There is a lack of entertainment value.

Empire “level up” is very grindy and dull.

Police Heat does not decrease, even if you change cities. It only decreases if you get arrested as if to punish you for making bank.

You’ll be stuck with your money, barely able to buy anything until you spend endless hours increasing your Empire rank.

There is no way to continue your current life or keep your safe houses from getting temporarily closed without having to spend real life money. Their excuse is that it’s a “new game” even though it’s supposed to be a sequel.

They promised UDE 1 Premium players to get an exclusive hideout, car and weapon from day one of release. They Lied.

None were implemented. Might I add that they said it’d be “free”.

The event pop ups are too fast and don’t get logged. You can barely read them or go back to reading them.

Every polish feature that made the original game good was thrown out. This game needs at least another year in the oven.

Response from developer

UDE2 was rebuilt from the ground up to support much bigger updates going forward. It won’t have everything from day one, so if it feels light right now, feel free to check back as the game grows.

Good game, Needs more content

Really like it so far although I do feel empire progression is a little slow. Maybe it’s intended or I just ran a poorly optimized operation or something but it took me like 2 or 3 lives just to be able to go to any other city. I like the idea of levels unlocking new products and places to go and what not but I just think that the grind should be shortened or you need to add to the gameplay cycle to make it not as repetitive. Also a way to reduce police heat other than passing multiple months or just in general more depth to the police and how you gain heat. Production labs would be great like the first game too although I’d like to see some improvements to them? Maybe instead of yearly product it can function like a real lab where you pay overhead for supplies and flip it? Could add more risk with getting raided too. Idk that ones kinda spitball anyways great game though love to see the updates.

Response from developer

Thanks, really appreciate the feedback. The game has only just launched, so there’s still a lot more depth and improved systems coming. We’re already working on expanding empire progression and the overall gameplay loop, and there’s plenty more planned.

Just a money pit

This is a shell of the first version no matter how often you say it’s a different game at least the first had travel options and different prices and more options I. Everything there’s no bribe no lottery no doctor nothing it’s like the test version of the first I waited for this game to come out and wound up disappointed you die often and have to use gold to keep progress and then you offer one video after you die so your forced to buy gold

Response from developer

I understand why you’re disappointed with some of the systems from the first game not being there yet. UDE2 has a different progression structure, but we’re actively adding more depth, options and ways to earn rewards without purchases. Thanks for giving it a try.

Hopeful

Needs more still good I just kinda expected more off launch hopeful for tons more to come

Response from developer

Incoming :)

Alright

Wish It had more options like the first one

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! The game has only just released, and we’ll be adding more options, features and content through future updates.

Fun, but built to drain

The first version was better. You made this one look nicer, but you added more death and events which want gold to get through without major setback. You can't get things that upgrade with gold. It is just for bailing yourself out. They offer plenty of chances to spend your gold. Greed kills games.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Death and setbacks are part of UDE2’s progression, with each new life allowing you to build your empire and come back stronger. Gold is optional and isn’t required to progress. We’ll continue expanding the game with new content and improvements.

Cash Grab

I’ve been playing the first game for years. I loved it a lot and when I found out about 2 I was super excited for a new start.

I will start with the good. There are some really good new features like separating Sell and Buy as well well as you can see how much profit your making.

That’s about it. Cons. This whole game is a cash grab pay to win. What was my favorite mobile game now is just another Cash Grab on the market

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. UDE2 is fully playable without purchases, with each life building your progression. Gold is optional and helps support continued development, updates and new content for the game.

Good but hopefully it gets less annoying

The first game was great even bought premium for it so i had high hopes for the 2nd version the interface is way better and easier to look at however the gold mechanic is really irritating especially since you have to pay to appoint a successor so you don’t have to start all over again but other than that good game :)

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! Starting a new life doesn’t mean starting over, each life builds your Empire progression so you come back stronger. Glad you’re enjoying the game! We will be adding new content and improvements regularly thanks for the support.

Interesting

Curious as to why I can’t get my heat level down. Got arrested and had nothing on me and had to do 4 years. They had no proof of anything but still sentenced me . Should be more realistic. I’m just going to go to jail regardless if I have anything or not.
No lawyers to protect me , can’t bribe cops, I just started the game so I’m hoping there’s more to it. But i definitely did not appreciate serving 4 years for no reason. Going to continue playing . I really enjoyed the first one. Hoping to enjoy this one a lot more

Response from developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback. We’re already working on expanding encounters and adding more depth to heat, arrests and police interactions. We’re also reviewing situations where you’re caught with nothing on you. The game has only just released, so these systems will continue to grow through updates. Really appreciate you sticking with it!

Great game

Smooth didn’t get the stuff for being Premium in part one

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Rewards for players who owned Premium in the first game were planned, but we wasn’t able to get that system implemented in time for launch. We're still looking at the best way to handle this in a future update.

A ok 2rd game

The game is lacking in a lot of what made the first game good this one feels more like a money grab I want the ability to carry on my life with out having to watch ads and paying money for gold other then this aspect I do like and enjoy the new system in the game pls fix the gold to carry on life problem I think it would make it a million times better

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! You don’t have to pay to keep playing. Starting a new life is free and is part of UDE2’s progression, with your Empire Rank, XP and unlocks carrying forward. Gold is only an optional way to continue your current life.

Ude2

Really good

Response from developer

Thanks for the rating!

Good game

I enjoyed the first version and this one is enjoyable so far as well. can’t wait for a premium add on

Response from developer

Thanks for the support! Really glad you’re enjoying UDE2. We’ve got plenty more planned, including more content and features as we continue expanding the game.

Game is missing a lot but very early still

Firstly gameplay is simpler than the first and lacks many options in attacking and more detailed breakdown. The game is also missing customization per life and other different things to do. Even if you buy the Starter Pack gets some gold and no adds you will lacks ability to keep empire per life and need to buy gold constantly. Instead need to constantly start over again and again for Empire XP which barely makes a difference and is very stale as little difference in new lives. Lives are very stale except when in combat or fleeting stage where you can pass very low or low can fail very high as well feel like probability is rough. Rng takes a lot out of detailed choices from first game. Lastly didn't receive any legacy rewards as specified online even though bought premium last game and linked on same account. Hopeful they flesh out the game as currently plays like a shell of the last one. Honestly feels a bit of a cash grab with how many lives need and rapid gold usage when lives are wasted by rng no matter the odds just to keep empire wealth.

Response from developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback. UDE2 is designed around multiple lives and building Empire progression, rather than keeping one character forever. Gold isn’t required to progress or start new lives. We’re continuing to add more variety and content, and legacy rewards are still coming in a future update.
