The music in the game is generally described as pleasant and soothing, with a mix of instrumental tracks and nature sounds that can be adjusted in settings. However, many users note that the music loops are short and repetitive, which can detract from the experience, leading some to prefer listening to their own playlists instead. Overall, while the soundtrack is appreciated for its aesthetic, its limited variety and frequent repetition may prompt players to turn it down or off during gameplay.
