  • music
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally praised for being catchy, upbeat, and fitting the theme, contributing positively to the overall atmosphere.

Overall, while the soundtrack enhances the experience, it could benefit from more variety and refinement.

    • “Good music that reminded me of Banjo-Kazooie.”

    • “Some elevators in the third underground/lava area don't activate properly and require you to find more tedious alternate routes to get through it all while on a search.”
