The music in the game, primarily consisting of non-copyrighted classical pieces, is generally appreciated for its decent quality and ability to create a relaxing atmosphere during gameplay. However, some users feel that the overall experience is somewhat bland, with the music being one of the few standout elements.
“The castle, the ice structure, the rainbow... I'm sure it will take a long time to get to, but it's still a fun experience and can be relaxing if you just listen to the music and ride.”
