    The game's graphics are dated, resembling styles from the mid-1990s, with clear polygonal visuals and a decent graphical user interface that still hold up reasonably well for their time. However, players expecting modern high-resolution or 4K graphics may find them lacking.

    • “It had decent video footage, good graphics, and decent gameplay for its time.”
    • “The graphics are like in 1996, so if you only like 4k graphics, you don't want to play this game.”
    • “And while the polygonal graphics make it look dated, they still hold up fairly well and are rendered quite clearly.”
