The graphics in the game are generally considered subpar, lacking in visual appeal and creativity, which contributes to the overall repetitive and uninteresting level design. Reviewers suggest that the game would benefit significantly from the expertise of a graphic designer to enhance its visual quality.
“The levels are repetitive and uninteresting, the graphics (should you care about such a thing) aren't that stellar, and the towers are alright but not spectacularly balanced.”
“This game furiously needs a graphic designer, a level designer, and an English translator.”
