The music in the game is generally well-suited to the atmosphere, but it quickly becomes repetitive, especially given the game's length of over 100 levels. Players have noted that the audio controls are ineffective, as the music cannot be turned off despite attempts to mute it, leading to frustration. Overall, while the soundtrack is not distracting, its infinite loop can detract from the gaming experience.
- “The music suits the game well.”
- “The soundtrack is a midi loop that funnily enough will not stop if you click on the corresponding icon - there is no way to turn it off.”
- “And you can't turn off the music in the game; the button that controls the audio is either 'on or off,' but the audio doesn't stop no matter what it is set to.”
- “The in-game audio mute doesn't work, but the music isn't distracting.”
- “The graphics are fine, but the music is the same melody repeating infinitely and cannot be turned off.”
