The game's graphics are described as unimpressive, featuring simple 2D visuals typical of low-effort mobile apps, which fails to meet the expectations of PC gamers accustomed to high-quality visuals. The lack of depth in graphical design and overall audio further detracts from the experience, making it feel like a rushed project with minimal investment in artistic quality.
“The game features simple 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low-effort mobile apps.”
“Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”
“3D graphics programming does require a degree of skill and competence, and unfortunately not all developers have the budget or talent to deliver this, despite 3D graphics cards hitting the mainstream in the 1990s.”

The monetization practices associated with Laush Studio are criticized for being unethical, involving the exploitation of others' work and the use of fake accounts to promote low-quality games as cash grabs. Reviews indicate a pattern of asset flips and scams, with suspiciously timed purchases and reviews that suggest manipulation of the Steam platform.
“Laush Dmitriy Sergeevich/Laush Studio have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked/alternate accounts.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
