The graphics of the game are generally described as colorful and charming, appealing particularly to younger audiences with their whimsical art style and cute character animations. However, some reviews note that the graphics are basic and reminiscent of a mobile game, lacking depth and sophistication, which contributes to an overall low-budget feel. While the visuals are enjoyable for casual play, they may not satisfy more discerning gamers looking for higher-quality graphics.
“Adorables boasts a colorful and whimsical art style that brings its charming cast of creatures to life.”
“The graphics are colorful and well-designed, with adorable character animations that will bring a smile to your face.”
“Amazing graphics and cosmetic design.”
“The graphics are bland and characters only have two frames of animation at best. Sound design is minimal to non-existent, controls and UI aren't changed much from its mobile counterpart, and the SteamOS, Linux port is, akin to the game itself, very half-assed.”
“As fun as it is, it's very easy to tell that everything but the visuals was done very low-budget and was rushed.”
“The graphics are similar to a cell phone game; the game is addressed to young audiences, so its graphics are well.”

The game's story is minimal and primarily serves as a backdrop for gameplay, with players engaging in a series of skirmishes rather than a cohesive narrative. While some users appreciate the simplicity and find it enjoyable, others note that it lacks depth, comparing it unfavorably to more intricate stories. Overall, the experience is more about the gameplay mechanics than a compelling storyline.
“Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“I think it might be more interesting if the non-practice modes had their own separate player teams, so a story mode team starts off as just a bunch of generic adorables and earns their own unlocks separately from the default team.”
“Games can be played as 'practice' (skirmishes), a 'world cup' event where you play the soccer mode using world cup rules (group stages, then I assume a tournament), a 'tournament' mode where you can choose the game mode, and a 'story' mode which is pretty much just one skirmish after another.”
“I think it might be more interesting if the non-practice modes had their own separate player-teams, so a story mode team starts off as just a bunch of generic adorables and earns their own unlocks separately from the default team.”
“Better love story than Twilight.”
