    The graphics of the PC port feature improved lighting effects and a more refined user interface compared to the mobile version; however, players criticize the overall visual quality, noting blurry text, low textures, and a lack of significant graphical enhancements. Additionally, the game is capped at 50fps and suffers from issues when played in fullscreen mode on multiple monitors, detracting from the experience.

    • “This PC port adds new lighting graphics, like glowing orbs, which the mobile version lacks due to image bloom. It enhances the quality of the UI for PC/console and includes keybinds.”
    • “The game concept is good, but it plays exactly how it did when it was released on the iPod in the 2010s. The text is blurry, and the textures are low quality for being on PC. There are no graphics improvements or settings for PC, and the game is capped at 50fps. Additionally, if you put the game in fullscreen mode and have multiple monitors, it breaks the game, requiring you to turn off all your monitors except one and then turn them back on after the game loads correctly.”
