The graphics are praised for enhancing tabletop RPG campaigns with appealing visuals, particularly suited for creating generic European medieval villages. However, users note a lack of diversity in aesthetics, as the visuals do not cater to other themes like tribal or ancient civilizations. The journal-like presentation adds to the overall charm, but may limit creative options for those seeking varied environments.
“It's very useful for TTRPG campaigns; it adds some nice visuals to your story.”
“This is great for obvious reasons as well, and I do like the aesthetic of it being a journal.”
“The graphics enhance the overall experience, making the world feel more immersive and engaging.”
“But if you want to build a very generic European medieval village and nothing else, this is for you. Just hope you're not looking for any other form of aesthetic like tribal villages, or pyramids, or anything that isn't generic Europe.”

“I find that opening the inventory is a little buggy, and the game lags a little.”
“I tried this game in VR; I am unsure if it's due to SteamVR or not, but it's pretty buggy.”
