The graphics of the game are generally considered modest, reflecting its indie origins, with a cute "chibi" art style that some describe as reminiscent of clipart or reused assets. While the visuals may not be groundbreaking and the UI feels outdated, the overall aesthetic is enjoyable and complemented by the game's engaging variety of activities. Players appreciate the intuitive UI, though they acknowledge that improvements could enhance the graphical experience.
“The graphics are nice, and the UI is really intuitive.”
“Cute 2D graphics.”
“Some graphics can be improved, but it is compensated with the variety of things to do in the game.”
“Feels like the bare basics of what you can add to the game, the UI feels outdated, the art style feels like clipart or used assets from somewhere else.”
“Some graphics can be improved, but it is compensated with the variety of things to do going on in the game.”
“Definitely more than what you can expect looking at the graphics (not great but nice and 'chibi').”

The gameplay is generally well-received, with players appreciating its potential and frequent updates, reminiscent of classic theme park games. However, there is a consensus that the game would benefit from improved tutorials and tooltips to help players better engage with its simplistic mechanics.
“Good gameplay and frequent updates, very promising!”
“Needs a better tutorial and tool tips to help players engage with the still very simplistic mechanics.”
“Playing this game, I have the same feelings I had when I played Theme Park back in the '90s: this game uses the working mechanics of Theme Park and implements its own, showing great potential.”

The story aspect of the game allows players to customize the amount of gold and experience points earned per quest, but it lacks a clear system for players to understand the significance of these rewards.
