The music in the game is highly praised, featuring a well-produced soundtrack that includes nostalgic old-school trance tracks, which enhance the gameplay experience. Reviewers appreciate the variety of original music available, contrasting it with other Tetris clones that often rely on a single repetitive track. While some players express a desire for classic 8-bit music for nostalgia, the overall consensus is that the soundtrack significantly contributes to the game's enjoyment.
- “The music is set to some old-school trance which, for me at least, makes me feel quite nostalgic.”
- “The make-or-break Tetris games for me always have a great soundtrack that matches the pace of what you're doing rather well.”
- “Well, Tetrux has lots of good original music -- somewhere in the slower range or trance music, but perfect for video games like Tetris.”
- “Too many Tetris clones have only one song that just keeps playing, and if it's not a good piece of music, it makes the game more boring.”
- “The only thing on my list that it doesn't have is the classic 8-bit music score, just for nostalgia.”
- “A zen game mode would be nice as well where it's got a more relaxing style of music and background/block color without having to change it all in settings.”
