The music in the game has received mixed reviews; while some players appreciate the cool soundtrack and interesting audio, others have noted issues such as music stopping unexpectedly and repetitive sound design that feels borrowed from other sources. Overall, the audio experience contributes positively to the environment, but there are significant concerns regarding its execution and variety.
“The soundtrack is really cool, and the updates seem to work. The games are very smooth and have good environments; overall, it's a great experience!”
“The audio was great, although I had trouble with the music stopping sometimes if I left the area, and then there would be no sound.”
“+cool music”
“The gameplay of each attraction is just a watered down version of other horror games, and the sound/music used is taken right out of other games and films.”
“I think the developers need to tweak a few bits, to be honest. The music box music in the black hole level was annoying until I found the 5 coins, and the zombie growl noises every 2 seconds in the hospital level were kind of annoying.”

The game's atmosphere is praised for its beauty and variety, with developers successfully creating distinct environments that enhance immersion. However, some players feel that the tension is undermined by predictability, leading to a mixed experience where moments of genuine fear are overshadowed by a lack of surprise. Overall, while the atmosphere is visually appealing, it may not consistently evoke strong emotional responses.
“It's nice to see that in a game that's both beautiful and atmospheric, no one seems to be relying on cheap jump scares anymore, unless it's a 2D platformer or something.”
“The fact that the developer can create multiple different atmospheres you can jump between is pretty damn cool.”
“The engine really helped make the atmospheres feel believable, even if at times they felt disjointed, especially in the black hole.”
“Atmosphere: 5/10 - there are some moments when I would actually feel scared, but after a little while I was completely aware of when something was going to happen.”
