Additionally, the choice of music is described as peculiar, featuring swing and big band styles reminiscent of the 1940s and 50s, which may not appeal to all players.
- “The music choice is very odd - it sounds like swing and big band music from the 40s and 50s that Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra would sing to.”
