- The title could use some tweaking, since it doesn't really look like a part of the painting, might as well raise it on the same level as the main map
- The legend on the right side - maybe add a very slight drop shadow
- Large map: The bonus names on the minimap are blurry

It might be the rounded edge that you see around the gameboard and the legend, as typically maps that have had a background were often more "locked into the same plane" as the background. Could this be what you can't put your finger on?

Yes, I see now. Is there a way to show the differences between canals and rivers and other bodies of water?

I cannot think of one that would not cause massive confusion to players. It would mean a redraw of each one or a different colour (variation of blue) and then another explanation in the legend (what there is of it). Hopefully, the huge difference between the impassable rivers and the territ line waterways will eliminate that completely.

It should be able to. It isn't that long. But maybe call it "Classic Cities: Jakarta"?
