Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Speaking of Visuals, Okhlos' graphics style is very peculiar, drawing 2D characters in a 3D environment set in a 2.5D view.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Review: Comes with controller support, resolution options, gamepad sensitivity sliders, an ability to hard reset the game with a button to a fresh install, a large encyclopedia documenting just about everything in the game good music, nice attention to details like combat words, references to famous paintings or real ancient greece history, a fair amount of animations, destructible environments, an interesting "crafting" mechanic to create special units, intuitivie control scheme campaign mode and challenge modes, genuinely funny sense of humor in writing, flavor of animations and encyclopedia.
