The game's graphics are impressively polished for a title primarily utilizing greyboxes, with well-composed levels that feel more refined than typical blockout designs. However, the absence of certain graphical options, like shadow and LOD quality adjustments, is a minor drawback, though it is offset by the extensive gameplay and control features available.

- “The graphics are stunning, with vibrant colors and detailed environments that truly immerse you in the game world.”
- “The art style is unique and beautifully executed, making every scene a visual treat.”
- “One small disappointing note is that the game lacks some graphical options, such as the ability to change the shadow quality and possibly the LOD quality. However, these are only minor issues and are made up for by the large amount of gameplay and control options.”
- “The graphics feel outdated and lack the polish expected from a modern game, making it hard to fully immerse myself in the experience.”
- “While the art style is unique, the overall graphical fidelity is disappointing, with textures that appear blurry and environments that lack detail.”
