    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have been criticized for their simplicity and lack of customization options, with many reviewers noting the use of basic, cartoonish 2D visuals typical of low-effort mobile apps. The 3D graphics are described as dated and lacking the quality expected from PC games, suggesting a lack of skill and budget from the developers. Overall, the visuals are seen as generic and not visually impressive, failing to meet the standards of modern gaming.

    • “A well made game: no bugs or pixel graphics.”
    • “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.”
    • “Graphics look somewhat dated for the age of the game and are rather dark compared to the usual bright and cartoonish offerings from such games.”
  • story
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Gnomes Garden: Christmas Story" is considered a commendable effort for a time management game, featuring an interesting narrative without overwhelming dialogue or cut scenes.

    • “The story is interesting, but there isn't so much dialogue and cut scenes for it to become a frustration.”
    • “Story and graphics are pretty generic; feels like an off-brand Gnomes Garden.”
    • “A laudable attempt at a proper story, more so than any other time management game I've played.”
  • monetization
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Despite the lack of in-game purchases or internet requirements, the game's origins as a low-effort mobile title have led to negative perceptions regarding its value.

    • “No internet connection or in-game purchase nonsense, just fun.”
    • “Royal Roads is a free mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as a paid product, as if it was a real PC game (it's not)... it's a cash grab from greedy mobile devs and Russian asset flip copy + paste shovelware game pushers at 8floor.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
