The addition of more creatures gives it more depth and will keep you amused that little bit longer, plus the plot is amusing and explores the darker side of Eden, what with the undead running around all over the place and everything.

A worthy expansion to the game and admit it, you want to cast Lava in your town. I know you do.

A better class of more of the same. [June 2006, p.92]

Battle of the Gods is more of the same for fans of the original game – the rival god adds more character to the game but doesn’t have much of an impact on gameplay.

Battle of the Gods is a straightforward expansion that adds some new, but not remarkably different, content to Black and White 2.

The only real addition worth mentioning (beyond just having more missions) is the inclusion of an enemy with a definite personality and agenda.

Your overall sense of immersion with the game is broken occasionally by the tempo of the game, however Battle of the Gods seems to be played at a much faster rate that should please anybody turned off by the occasionally pedestrian pace of its predecessors.

It's a fine addition to Black & White 2 but in the end it's more of the same - entertaining more of the same, though, for under $20.

Unfortunately all the flaws from the original are still glaringly omnipresent - from the awkward mouse cursor to the tedious mini-games. [June 2006, p.96]

Yet another collection of separate ideas, which do not work together. The simplistic and far-too-easy gameplay is insulting. Maybe someone with actual gaming experience could make Black & White finally work? [June 2006]
