The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many users describing them as outdated and reminiscent of games from two decades ago. While some find the graphics acceptable and well-detailed, others criticize the poor optimization and performance issues, leading to low frame rates even on modern hardware. Overall, there is a consensus that improvements are needed, particularly in optimization and graphical fidelity, especially since the game is still in early access.
- “At all this it is a well-detailed game with acceptable graphics.”
- “This game is still early access, so this won't be my final comment, but in this current state, I think this game has very promising gameplay and nice graphics.”
- “Graphically, it looks alright; it does the job, they aren't the latest.”
- “Graphics are miserable, like a 20-year-old game. The controls are weird and the options to run through the game are questionable. Quite a shame; a subway simulator from years ago was way better than this.”
- “Sometimes the graphics get blurry to 'increase performance', I guess.”
- “From what I did not like - the optimization of the game is not very good (64 fps at 3060 RTX). In any case, it does not correspond to the level of graphics.”

- “From what I did not like - the optimization of the game is not very good (64 fps at 3060 RTX); in any case, it does not correspond to the level of graphics.”
