The graphics and textures of the game have been widely criticized for being unattractive and poorly executed, contributing to a frustrating navigation and camera control experience. While some appreciate the concept, the overall visual presentation has left many players feeling disappointed.
“The way you navigate and the camera controls are just wonky; the graphics and textures look ugly, and there really is no fun to the game at all. It's all just kind of stupid, but maybe I'm just not into it, I don't know.”
