The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some praising the talented soundtrack and its emotional depth, particularly highlighting the flute melodies. However, others criticize it for being repetitive and lacking originality, with looping tracks that can become tiresome. Overall, while some players find the music enhances the experience, others feel it detracts from the game's enjoyment.
“I've heard this game described as 'linear' and 'dull,' but what I think those users meant to say was 'winear' (referring to the wonderful soundtrack that wistfully plays to anyone who plays this wonderful game), and 'full of fantastic decisions that interweave into a larger narrative,' which are all super good comments packed with authenticity.”
“Another thing I loved about this game is the music.”
“The artist who made the soundtrack is obviously an extremely talented musician—I loved the flute.”
“Music is meh; the animations of dancing on the main menu have random jerkiness that returns the model to the origin point.”
“No original soundtrack.”
