You can rest assured you're not going to be put behind an impossibly long grind to get you to buy premium currency, or get stuck buying the "Realism Expansion DLC".

Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics reminded me a bit of Smooth Operators (call center business sim).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's nice simple artwork and you start getting attached to your artists, and the level of difficulty scales nicely and you genuinely have a challenge for a casual game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is also accompanied with an interesting (but short) soundtrack which brings to life the Renaissance atmo into your room.
