    The game's graphics are widely criticized for being outdated and lackluster 2D visuals, especially given the widespread availability and expectation of 3D graphics since the mid-1990s. Reviewers feel the choice undermines the gaming experience, as modern devices readily support 3D graphics.

    • “The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?).”
    • “Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs and the latest 3D graphics cards to play 2D games.”
    • “Even mobile phones and game consoles can do 3D graphics now.”
