The graphics are generally well-received for maintaining visual interest, but some users feel that the animations could be smoother and that the sound effects lack impact during key gameplay moments. Overall, while the visuals are engaging, there is room for improvement in animation fluidity and audio feedback.
“Keeping the visuals from getting stale.”
“My only gripe is that I feel some of the animations could be smoother with the artwork, and the sounds need a bit more of a oomph to them when doing chains and destroying blocks.”
