The graphics have received criticism for their inconsistent art style, with a poor-quality intro animation and jarring differences between in-game visuals and phone conversations. Overall, the visual presentation is considered unappealing and lacks cohesion.

The game is praised for its abundant humor, particularly highlighted in the entertaining tutorial set in a Star Trek-like holodeck. Players find the comedic elements to be a delightful surprise, contributing to an overall enjoyable experience in the game's Blade Runner-inspired setting.
- “After learning the basics and completing the humor-filled tutorial (which took place in a giant Star Trek holodeck), you'll be teleported to some sort of Blade Runner city where the rest of the action takes place.”
- “So far I've played a few hours, had a lot of fun as the game is very entertaining and, again, humor is everywhere. I didn't expect such a nice game, that's why I can only recommend it, even if it's still in testing (adding other text languages, for instance).”

- “The constant need to grind for levels and resources makes the gameplay feel repetitive and tedious.”
- “Grinding for upgrades feels like a chore rather than an engaging part of the game, detracting from the overall experience.”
