The humor in the game is largely derived from the creative freedom it offers, allowing players to create and share amusing content. Users find visiting others' worlds to be a mix of funny, bizarre, and occasionally melancholic experiences. However, there are limitations regarding the use of personal images, which some players find frustrating.

The graphics and aesthetic of the game evoke a nostalgic feel reminiscent of older VRML worlds, appealing to those who appreciate a casual and artistic style. While some minor bugs are present, the unique visual presentation makes it a worthwhile experience for fans of retro graphics.

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, particularly due to the limited tool options for aligning images and the absence of an undo button, which can make the creative process feel more laborious than enjoyable.
“It is by no means difficult to create something, but it can be tedious at times to align the placed images to your liking, having next to no options for your tools to adjust or not having an undo button, for example.”
