While the plot is detailed and takes unexpected turns, it ultimately remains unremarkable and is complemented by a focus on storytelling rather than challenging gameplay.
- “The plot is spelled out in great detail.”
- “The storyline will be familiar to many gamers.”
- “A short and silly story about a slime who wants to make babies but ends up in the middle of an infection.”
- “After a while, the plot takes an unexpected turn.”

The graphics of the game are characterized by outdated retro pixel art, which some players find lacks depth and quality despite options to adjust resolution. While the simplistic 2D visuals may appeal to fans of retro aesthetics, they are generally considered lackluster and offer little room for improvement. Overall, the graphics contribute to a nostalgic feel but may not satisfy those seeking modern visual fidelity.
- “The graphics are made in retro style, the controls are standard (up, down, left, right, jump and interaction button).”
- “Life of Slime is a 3rd person action game in which you have to live the whole life of a slime who was not taken to the university and he will have to merge into a harsh adult life (work as a cashier and a security guard, see new cities and meet unfamiliar slimes), and all this with nice pixel graphics and 8-bit and lo-fi music in the background.”
- “A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
- “While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
- “Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lackluster 2D visuals.”
