The game's graphics are characterized by a lazy minimalist style with low-polygon, untextured assets reminiscent of early 1990s 3D games, which some players view as a lack of effort rather than a deliberate artistic choice. While the visuals are simple and may not demand high system requirements, they can still perform poorly on certain hardware, leading to frustration among users. Overall, opinions are mixed, with some appreciating the decent graphics in the context of the game's puzzles and achievements.
“A game that gives you a lot of achievement, has good puzzles and decent graphics.”
“+ decent graphics”
“The lack of textures is a method that lazy developers often use to disguise their lack of talent or interest in doing the graphics properly, trying to pass it off as 'art' or 'we made it look bad on purpose.' This is not something gamers should have to put up with.”
“I wish I could scale things down for weaker graphic cards!”
“Terribly slow on a laptop with a Core i5, despite the fact that there is nothing to slow down; the graphics are very simple.”
