The graphics of the game have received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users describing them as mediocre, janky, and plagued by bugs that hinder gameplay. While some players noted slight improvements in graphics after the tutorial, the overall consensus is that the visuals are subpar and contribute to a frustrating gaming experience. Many reviewers expressed disappointment, suggesting that the graphics need significant enhancement to meet player expectations.
- “The graphics are decent for an early access game; I hope that they will improve them, though.”
- “Although the graphics at the beginning are borderline okay, they get much better after the tutorial.”
- “Oh, let's not even get started on the graphics.”
- “Seems the devs pulled the plug on this game; many bugs make it impossible to progress through even the first few quests. Mediocre graphics, bad sound, wonky controls— even if it were 90% off, I wouldn't recommend it.”
- “This game is almost unplayable. I kept running off into the distance; the tutorial was worthless for gameplay or storyline. The voices are bad, the graphics are bad, the textures are bad... I really tried to get into it, but then I randomly turned into a chicken with gibberish on my screen, which pretty much broke the game.”

- “Complete quests and try to figure out the story”
- “Complete quests and try to figure out the story”
- “Even the quest design feels as if it was done by a team of arctic hares on a caffeine high, leaving you with a sense of aimlessness that rivals wandering the arctic tundra without a map.”
- “As you can see, the maps are cramped, the quests are underdesigned, the voice cast consists of about 2 people; this is just an attempt to mislead people into buying the underdeveloped game.”
- “I couldn't keep track of the story as NPCs talked over each other, and again... the voices are so badly done that at one point the old man's voice dropped so low I swear he was about to drop a beat on me.”

The gameplay has been widely criticized for its numerous technical issues, including frequent crashes, a buggy tutorial, and poor graphics, which detract significantly from the overall experience. Players report a lack of engaging content, with many describing the gameplay as boring and unplayable due to glitches and awkward mechanics. Overall, the game's execution leaves much to be desired, leading to a negative reception from users.
- “Let's talk about the gameplay first, or rather, the lack thereof.”
- “I will change this review to positive when I actually have more time to play it, but for 20 minutes, 5 crashes and with a buggy tutorial & gameplay, I just can't leave a positive review.”
- “This game is almost unplayable. I kept running off into the distance, the tutorial was worthless for gameplay or storyline. I really tried to play this, but the voices are bad, the graphics are bad, the textures are bad... I really tried to get into it, then I randomly turned into a chicken with gibberish on my screen and pretty much broke the game more. You can move while in cut scenes, and since it keeps making me run, I run off into nowhere and have to make my way back.”
