The graphics are basic and low quality, reminiscent of simple flash or mobile games, with oversized visuals causing frequent gameplay issues. There are no options to adjust resolution or customize graphics settings, limiting any potential improvement. Overall, the graphical presentation is uninspired and detracts from the experience.
