The game's graphics rely on outdated retro pixel art, which many players find lackluster and unappealing compared to modern standards. Although there are resolution options available, they merely upscale the simplistic 2D assets without enhancing overall quality, leaving little room for improvement in the visual experience.
“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.”

The gameplay is criticized for being shallow and unengaging, resembling free browser flash games rather than a quality paid product on Steam. This has led to disappointment among players who expected more depth and value.
