The graphics are characterized by a retro pixel art style, which some users find appealing, but the resolution and controls are locked, preventing any customization to enhance the visual or control experience. This decision to use outdated graphics may not resonate with all players, particularly those expecting modern visuals.
- “Cool graphics”
- “Resolution and controls are locked, and can't be changed or customized to improve the visuals or the control experience.”
- “A choice was made to use obsolete retro pixel 'art' as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”

The gameplay is criticized for its poor quality and vagueness, making it difficult for players to understand objectives, which has led to a lack of engagement and a very low player count. Despite the availability of a tutorial, many users found the mechanics confusing, contributing to the game's overall failure.
- “I clicked the tutorial button and learned the game mechanics.”
- “The poor quality and confused gameplay (it's extremely vague what you're supposed to do) contributed to the game's failure... despite being completely free, the highest concurrent player count was only 5, and that just happened on one day.”

Players note that "grinding" in Water Rain involves a mix of combat and resource management, as they must repeatedly engage in battles against enemies and other players while also focusing on farming and building to generate income. This dual focus on slashing and economic development creates a unique but potentially repetitive gameplay loop.
