The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players find it soothing and conducive to focus during zen-like puzzles, others find it extremely annoying and note that it can only be turned off entirely rather than adjusted. Overall, it appears to be a polarizing aspect that can either enhance relaxation or detract from the experience.
“The zen-like puzzles and background music are very soothing and help focus.”
“The game, with no music and a blue background, will get me through a minor migraine, a bad day, or just relaxing.”
“This is pretty awful - the music is extremely annoying and it cannot be turned down, it has to be turned off.”
“The controls (what few there are) are well hidden (escape key) but one can shut off the music and the sound effects.”
“And that with the game (no music, blue background) will get me thru a minor migraine, a bad day or just relaxing.”
