The graphics in the game have received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the nice artwork and accompanying music, while others criticize the lower quality compared to previous titles, noting issues like a distracting white border and poorly rendered bees that detract from the overall experience.

“Nice artwork and sounds/music.”
“As the ancestors, there are different pieces of art and the bees vary according to the drawing of the artwork.”
“Here you get 10 wonderful line-arts, with over 100+ bees in each artwork to find.”
“Other than that, there are no other changes to the formula – the massive white border around them is disappointing and the art styles remain familiar but different.”
“Lower quality than the previous games; many of the bees leave behind a hole in the artwork when clicked instead of properly disappearing.”
“I hate to say this, but this is the first game in the series so far that I disliked... I didn't enjoy the artwork/scenes, and some of the scenes have bees that are scribbles or doodles that require significant magnification before executing some guesswork (i.e. is this blob a bee?).”
