The graphics are described as simple and basic, lacking options for resolution changes or significant tweaks, which is disappointing for a PC game. While they are considered attractive and serve their purpose, the overall visual quality does not meet the expectations of PC gamers accustomed to more impressive graphics. The game retains a consistent art style with the oik series, but it diverges significantly in gameplay elements.
- “The graphics are simple but attractive and serve their purpose.”
- “This has quite nothing to do with the oik series - no physics puzzles, no colored squares, no balancing things.. but it retains the whole oik style: the graphics, the number of levels (50 total!), the nice soundtrack and so on.”
- “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
- “Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”
- “The music is alright, the graphics are basic.”

The game's replayability is largely criticized, with many reviewers noting the lack of randomized modes and pre-defined levels, resulting in minimal replay value. However, some players appreciate the extensive content, citing the 50 levels as providing enough challenge to warrant multiple playthroughs, despite the absence of randomness. Overall, opinions are mixed, with some finding it enjoyable for longer sessions while others see it as lacking replayability.
- “It's not so common nowadays to find such little games, minimalistic but still enjoyable and definitely long - 50 levels mean not only that there's lots of replayability but also that you can't certainly complete everything in one or two sessions.”
- “Each level and pattern is pre-defined and there is no randomized mode, so there is little to no replay value.”
- “Zero replayability.”
- “Each level and pattern is pre-defined and there is no randomized mode, so there is little to no replay value.”
