    The music in the game is characterized by a single, pleasant looping track that many players find soothing and enjoyable, despite its repetitiveness. The calming and cheerful soundtrack complements the beautiful hand-painted art style, creating a relaxing atmosphere ideal for unwinding. While some players wished for more variety in the music, the overall reception highlights its effectiveness in enhancing the game's tranquil experience.

    • “A great way to wind down in the evening/before bed with beautiful hand-painted scenes and calming music.”
    • “The 'soundtrack' consists of only one song that loops for the entire game; but it's a pleasant song to its credit, and one that I can't say I had a problem hearing over and over again.”
    • “As someone who's never lived around trams/streetcars/trolleys, it was oddly soothing listening to the sounds of the tram as it rhythmically chugged its way across the idyllic little city--at least until I put on the uncomfortably accurate screeching brakes, which is when I proceeded to kick the sound effects volume down a notch so it wouldn't drown out the music quite as much.”
    • “The music is calming and cheerful.”

    • “I love the watercolor-type art style and music.”
    • “The story centers on observing passengers' desires, but the game is short and the graphics are simple watercolor drawings.”
