The music in the game is described as ominous and impactful, effectively creating a sense of unease and tension, particularly following jump-scare moments. However, some players feel that the emptiness of the environment diminishes the effectiveness of the soundtrack, leading to a feeling of unease without clear purpose.
“After a jump-scare, then getting ominous music obviously puts you on edge, but the area you are sent to is just emptiness, making it uneasy without reason unlike fridge horror.”
“The soundtrack, as far as it's there, did make at least an impact on me, but for the wrong reasons.”
“After a jump-scare, then getting ominous music obviously puts you on edge, but the area you are sent to is just emptiness, making it unease without reason unlike fridge horror.”
“Then, after being surprised out of nowhere by a flashy object and a loud jump-scare scream, you get sent to a vast and empty city. I couldn't find anything to do in that had very ominous music; I was on edge for the rest of that 'attempt'.”
