The game's graphics feature charming hand-drawn artwork that captures the whimsical essence of a small town in fall, complemented by relaxing music.

- “The hand-drawn artwork gives the game a charming and whimsical feel, perfectly capturing the essence of a small town during the fall season.”

- “The artwork here is terrible; it's all just amateurish 'my first Wacom tablet' style drawings used instead of professional-looking game assets.”
