Overall, the graphics contribute positively to the game's immersive and terrifying ambiance.

“In general, I love the Granny franchise on both platforms, but the graphics in the PC version look so much better than the mobile, and I think it's worth its money.”
“Just like the first game, this game is really fun, the music really fits the game, the atmosphere is spot on, the graphics are really well made and fit the spooky vibe of the game, and the sound effects fit the game as well.”
“Really good, but there are issues all of which are graphical, like how hideous the texture filtering looks at times, or those annoying black lines, and the fact that you can't disable texture filtering. If those are fixed, this would be a fantastic game in both looks and gameplay.”
“PC graphics are awesome; otherwise, the mobile version graphics are a piece of crap.”
“The graphics were okay, not great, but okay.”

“But as John Carmack once said, 'story in a game is like a story in a porn movie.'”
“Much like the first game's PC port, there is a new intro cutscene to bridge the gap in story before the sequel's events take place.”

“Even if you disregard all the bugs, balancing issues, and random freezes, this is an awful game with absolutely no soul or effort put into it.”
