    The game's story is described as both intriguing and disjointed, featuring two separate plots that struggle to connect. While some players appreciate the unique settings and the deeper narrative hinted at through various locations, others criticize the lack of a cohesive storyline and character development. Overall, the narrative offers a compelling experience that encourages exploration and engagement, despite its fragmented execution.

    • “Deep, intriguing story which is revealed in a completely wild final act of the game.”
    • “The narrative aspect of the game is extremely well executed: the art style depicts a typical Filipino countryside, but there's always the sense that something is off at each of these locations, and piecing together that 'something' is the key to finding the deeper meaning of the story.”
    • “The story is quite compelling as well: I have not pieced together all of it even after a couple of playthroughs, but there is a definite motivation for the player to put themselves into more horrifying situations for a higher payoff at the end.”
    • “It overall felt a little disjointed as far as the story was concerned, since it did seem to have two different plots trying to play out at the same time and neither of them were really intertwined with each other.”

    • “However, each location is unique and gives a unique vibe, showing small parts of a larger story.”

    The gameplay of "Water Delivery" is a mix of horror and exploration, featuring simple mechanics that are easy to grasp, contributing to its replay value. However, some players feel the transition to a more traditional escape format in the final house detracts from the overall experience, as it shifts away from the initial horror theme without significant consequences for failure.

    • “Small file size and cheap price, but packs a ton of replay value and a surprisingly deep experience with easy-to-pick up game mechanics.”
    • “The mechanics are very realistic and will definitely prepare you for the job.”
    • “Gameplay changes when it probably should have stayed a walking simulator.”
    • “My main critique would be the final house, as it felt a little like it came from an entirely different game, as the gameplay switches from an outright horror title to more of an 'find keys to escape while avoiding enemies' title, with little consequence for capture besides locking you out of some of the endings.”
    • “Water delivery is a spooky little horror game where you deliver water to creepy/strange people, and then end up being chased by enemies in a mansion in a big spin of gameplay.”
