The text “Game Paused” appears in the middle, while the cookie banner is positioned at the bottom of the screen, together letting visitors know that something needs their attention.

The banner includes intentionally pixelated graphics—think Roblox meets web design. A set of cookies sits on the left edge, while on the right, two CTAs feature a distinctively large black border with square chunks notched out of all four corners, adding to the digital theme they’ve got going. The banner text has gotten the 5-star treatment too. It reads, “We've baked some cookies that you need to accept... Can we?” Dope, as its customers might think, prompting them to allow cookies. This is a decidedly clever way to convert users.

The “Manage Cookies” and “Accept” CTAs are cleverly highlighted; the former in black, inviting users to customize their preferences, and the latter in a bold yellow. It’s a smart use of color psychology to guide user behavior, especially using yellow, which denotes happiness and energy.

The modal that appears after users click “manage cookies” maintains the gaming motif. It has notches removed from each corner to give it a pixelated appearance. Here, they’ve added checkboxes instead of toggles, which are often used—though either is acceptable—allowing users to choose to enable optional cookies that track statistical information.

Both here and on the primary banner, the font weight is quite thin though, potentially straining the eyes. Increasing the font size and opting for a bolder weight to enhance legibility could improve the user experience. The yellow “Save” button stands out as the primary call-to-action, while “Cancel” is less conspicuous. The text here is clear and to the point, which is excellent for conversion.

All in all, Vintageria’s cookie consent UX and UI achieve a balance between compliance and creativity, making the necessary act of cookie consent as enjoyable as possible. Like a friendly non-playable character, guiding you through the settings and aligning with the overall theme, the game is on!
