The game's graphics are a mixed bag, featuring a visually pleasing art style inspired by Lewis Carroll's Wonderland, but ultimately suffering from low-quality, simplistic 2D visuals reminiscent of low-effort flash games. Players have noted a lack of customization options and resolution settings, which detracts from the overall experience. While the artwork is commendable, it fails to consistently impress throughout the game, leading to a disconnect between the polished cutscenes and the gameplay graphics.
“The sequel retains the aesthetic and theme inspired by Lewis Carroll's Wonderland but enhances the overall experience with more polished gameplay.”
“And the artwork, wow!”
“It's very visually pleasing and the artwork is different from the wood and gemstone looking tangram/mosaic style puzzles out there.”
“There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customize the graphics settings.”
“There's no way for gamers to try to improve the low quality graphics.”
“The game features somewhat lazy, simplistic 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low effort flash/browser games and mobile apps.”
