The graphics of the game have received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with users criticizing the visuals as poor and lacking customization options, limited to basic presets. Many reviewers liken the quality to that of low-budget games, describing the visuals as unappealing and poorly executed. However, a few users noted that the graphics style is acceptable, suggesting a slight variance in opinions.
- “The graphics of the game are nice and the style is okay.”
- “You can choose graphics from bad to fantastic, that's it.”
- “The visuals are disgusting, with everything looking like it's covered in Vaseline. I guess there's really no point in talking about that because the game probably had the budget of 2 dollars.”
- “There's no proper in-game settings, only the usual Unity options from fast to fantastic for the graphics. No saves or checkpoints, and who wants to restart the map over and over again in this mess?”
- “In fact, the only thing that the settings consist of is a Unity built-in graphics quality setup, which is equivalent to not having any setup at all, to be honest.”

- “Gameplay was trash, optimization sucked with no story.”
- “The controls, the gameplay, the sounds, the graphics, well, basically everything is horrible in this game.”
