The music in the game is generally described as fitting the setting but repetitive and non-intrusive, with some odd associations, particularly the menu screen music reminiscent of "Carol of the Bells." While it doesn't significantly enhance the experience, it also doesn't detract from it, contributing to the overall charm of the game. The combination of music and visuals creates a cute and colorful atmosphere, despite some critiques of the graphics.
