The game's graphics are criticized for being lazy and reminiscent of low-quality mobile apps, lacking the depth and detail expected from a fully developed title. This minimalist art style, combined with unengaging gameplay, detracts significantly from the overall experience.
- “Since the game is abandoned, it features lazy mobile-app tier minimalist art instead of proper graphics. This seems to be due to a lack of budget or talent to do better. Considering the simple and unengaging gameplay, I can't recommend this.”
