The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many praising the cute design, impressive animations, and overall quality, especially in comparison to other titles. Some users note improvements in updates, while others find the graphics merely acceptable, likening them to lower-tier games. Despite some bugs, the game's visual appeal and user-friendly decorating tools stand out positively.
“This game is not only cute, but also has great graphics.”
“The graphics are awesome and the animation is really well done!!!”
“I will say, the decorating tool is one of the best I've seen in any game; it's outstanding that we have triple-A titles that cost hundreds to complete, yet this comes along and blows it out of the water from graphics to accessibility/creating.”
“Graphics are so-so, on the level of Postal 2, but it is not surprising; after all, the game is not AAA class, so here it is excusable.”
