Not really a typo, but confusing two homophone words:

Basically, there are 4 servers and more often than not there full up
That second "there" should be a "they're", methinks.

Fixed. I also fixed the slight grammar error with using "Full Up", and fixed a "there" in the following sentence.

It now looks like this:

"Basically, there are 4 servers and more often than not they are filled up. If they're not all packed with players..."

Graphics in the game are okay, they are nothing special, but they are do the job effectively
There's a unnecessary "are" in there.

same review said:

Like in the beginning of the game, the color of your wallet was hard to make out as the interface was in black and so was your wallet.
Odd change of tense. Simple present would make more sense here. (The following sentence has simple past as well.)

same review said:

Note near the end of the game I finally noticed that each action has a small little tiny white pixel.
Looks like there's a colon missing after "note".

That is what the key to interacting with an object properly, glad to find it but still may be frustrating for gamers at times, especially with the time limit going on.
I think somebody was rewriting this sentence a bit too often and accidentally got rid of the subject.;)
