Rather than chasing realism, Foghorn Drowns embraces a unique retro 3D art style inspired by the PlayStation 1 era, with chunky geometry, low-resolution textures, and an aesthetic that perfectly complements its surreal world.

12 of 132 sampled reviews raised it
The same can be said for the sound effects, which do a great job of supporting the game's constantly shifting mood without ever feeling overbearing.
