The graphics of the game are described as simple yet effective, serving as an interactive map for educational purposes. While the visuals are generally well-received, there is a notable inconsistency with the depiction of celestial bodies, as the sun is shown revolving around the earth, contrary to reality.
“Graphically, Geo Master is very good.”
“Works like an interactive map for those who want to learn geographic wisdom.”
“However, I suspect that for aesthetic reasons, the sun is turning around the earth when it's the contrary in reality.”

The game exhibits significant stability issues, with frequent glitches and crashes, particularly when players achieve a streak of correct answers. This leads to incorrect information being displayed and prevents high scores from being recorded, detracting from the overall experience.
“A few glitches and some questionable answers... but if you are too quick and answer correctly too many times in a row, the game really freaks out. After five minutes or so, the capital of Bangladesh becomes the flag of Iceland and the capital of Bolivia becomes Europe.”
“Good concept, buggy - keeps crashing if you get a streak of correct answers, so no high scores recorded.”
