The game's graphics feature a charming hand-drawn aesthetic that evokes nostalgia, reminiscent of shows like "Ren and Stimpy," and presents adorable mice in a quirky, albeit somewhat creepy, style. While the visuals are engaging and complemented by effective voice acting, some players feel that the art alone isn't enough to sustain interest in a short gameplay experience. Overall, the graphics are appreciated for their uniqueness, but opinions vary on their long-term appeal.

- “The visuals of this game remind me of Ren and Stimpy.”
- “The art style immediately caught my eye, and the excellent voice acting convinced me to give it a go.”
- “There's no long term lasting merit; although the art style is quirky, it's not enough to carry a 5-minute game anywhere.”
- “Frankly, I think going for a more stereotypical children's game aesthetic would have worked much better.”
- “Not too very long (maybe 10 minutes), the artwork has a bit of a 'creepy' vibe to it.”

- “The mechanics are simple yet effective, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable experience that draws you into the game's world.”
