The graphics of the game have been criticized for relying on outdated retro pixel art, lacking options for resolution or customization, which limits players' ability to enhance the visual experience. While some users find the visuals reminiscent of old Flash games, they note that the overall quality is low and does not meet contemporary standards. Despite the simplistic appearance, the gameplay is described as challenging, requiring players to rely on sound rather than visuals.
- “Blackout Z reminds me of those old Newgrounds flash games but with better sound design and slightly better visuals.”
- “I never expected this game to be fun, so I had much more unexpected fun with this game. The game is pretty hard despite having simple graphics and playstyle in the store.”
- “The graphics have a nostalgic charm, reminiscent of retro pixel art, which adds a unique feel to the game.”
- “A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
- “There's no option 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.”
