    The graphics of this 16-bit game reflect its age, showing limitations in modern graphical fidelity, yet they possess a charming quality that has aged well since its release in 2001. While the visuals and UI design may not impress by today's standards, they were well-polished for their time and contribute to the game's overall fun experience. The sound design and soundtrack remain standout features, enhancing the nostalgic appeal.

    • “For a game that is over 15 years old, it has certainly aged well and, while perhaps not quite up to today's standards with regards to graphical fidelity, it definitely had immensely well-polished graphics for when it was released (2001).”
    • “It's an old 16-bit game, so it won't run perfectly everywhere and the graphics are nothing to write home about, but it has a lot of charm, still plays well, looks okay, and I'd honestly call it rather fun.”
    • “While graphics and UI design do show their age, the sound design and soundtrack are still amazing.”
