    The graphics are widely criticized for their outdated and weak 2D retro style, resembling unfinished flash games from the 90s. Many feel this visual approach is inappropriate for a 2025 release, especially given modern 3D graphics capabilities. While some may appreciate the nostalgic look, most find the visuals underwhelming and outdated.
