The graphics of the game are described as 2D and cartoony, receiving mixed reviews; while some players find them decent and enjoyable, others criticize them as lazy and lacking in options for resolution and tweaks.

“This game is hilarious, fun & the graphics are really good.”
“Overall the game had some very good parts too, especially the part with the army, some funny jokes, good graphics and a decent story; it's definitely worth $5, but I would much rather they give the game another couple of weeks for polishing and QA and charge $10.”
“Regardless, there's nothing backing the game to make up for the lazy approach to the visuals.”
“There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
“This game both changes the graphics somewhat, and the Russian language humor is just not as good.”
