    The graphics are generally dated with low textures and blurry text, showing minimal improvement from the original mobile version. While the PC port adds enhanced lighting effects and UI adjustments, it lacks comprehensive graphics settings and remains capped at 50fps. Additionally, fullscreen mode issues occur on multi-monitor setups, indicating technical shortcomings.

    • “This PC port adds new lighting graphics like new orb glowing, unlike the mobile version which doesn't have it due to image bloom. It adds quality-of-life improvements like UI for PC/console and keybinds.”
    • “Game concept is good but plays exactly how it did when it released on the iPod in the 2010s. Text is blurry, low textures for being on PC, no graphics improvements or settings for PC, capped at 50fps.”

Text is blurry, low textures for being on PC, no graphics improvements or settings for PC, capped at 50fps. Nothing new in the graphics, and fullscreen mode breaks the game with multiple monitors unless you disable and re-enable monitors.”
