- “The graphics are beautiful.”
- “The PSone graphics are charming and really send you on a nostalgia trip when I came across several Easter eggs from franchises such as Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, and MGS to name a few. There were some TV show and movie Easter eggs too, which were a nice surprise.”

- “The game is also lacking in graphic options, display options, sound options, captions, control options, and keybinds; if you want it, it's not here.”
