  • graphics9 mentions

    The game's graphics receive mixed reviews, with many praising the unique art style that adds charm and personality, while others highlight visibility issues and glitches, such as invisible walls and floors. Some players suggest that a softer graphics option and color adjustments can enhance the experience, particularly for those sensitive to the default color scheme.
