The music in Time Waste is described as beautiful and calming, enhancing the relaxing experience of the game, particularly for puzzle-solving and "clicky" gameplay. However, some users find the repetitive nature of the music annoying, though it can be turned off to allow players to listen to their own preferred tracks.
“Time Waste combines puzzle-solving games and 'clicky' games with beautiful, calming music. The game is great for passing time while you are at work or in a place to wait, calming you down and relaxing. Yes, it has a relaxation system, but we need other music options.”
“The repeating music can be easily turned off, allowing you to play your own music that you enjoy.”

The graphics of the game are widely praised for their brilliance and unique art style, contributing positively to the overall experience. While some players appreciate the visual presentation and its integration with the storyline, others feel that the gameplay structure detracts from the potential of the graphics. Overall, the visuals are a standout feature, though they are somewhat overshadowed by gameplay concerns.
“Brilliant game, storyline, graphics brilliant well worth the money.”
“Nice art style.”
“I like the graphics, I like that the first chapter shows you how to do things, I like the settings, and I like the bit of South American history that's slyly inserted, even if there are some fantasy elements in later chapters.”
