The music in "Memody: Sindrel Song" is widely praised for its high quality and memorable melodies, with many players noting its unique focus on memorization and repetition rather than traditional rhythm gameplay. While the soundtrack is engaging and enhances the storytelling, some players find the challenge of keeping up with complex patterns and lyrics can disrupt the flow. Overall, the game successfully intertwines music with character development, creating a rich and immersive experience.
- “A soundtrack most games wish they could match.”
- “What sets this game apart from other rhythm games is that there’s quite a focus on memorizing and repeating melodies – instead of reacting to a song that’s already playing by pressing the right buttons, you’re a part of the song yourself!”

- “Plus, all this storytelling does occasionally happen during a song through lyrics, which is challenging to follow when the songs themselves are challenging.”

- “- whenever you fail at a phrase, it brings the song to a very abrupt halt that interrupts any flow.”
