Obviously this is an audio product and thus it is going to be difficult to describe everything about it. It is produced well and sounds good. I think it will add a lot of atmosphere to any horror or mystery game. The tracks are named appropriately and you can usually figure out what it will sound like based on its title. That helps when trying to remember which track you want to play for a tense investigation scene over an action packed race for the characters’ lives.
The music is what you would expect from electronic compositions. There is the brooding piano, haunting strings, creepy chimes, funeral bells, etc. I will say that this particular set of tracks is generally superior to comparable products. What I mean by that is that the songs aren’t “artificial sounding” or “video game-y”. They are pleasant to the ear and appropriate for the setting. I would definitely recommend purchasing this if you want to add some additional depth to your game session. If Pelgrane Press would provide permission to use this in my podcast, you will hear it in several games for sure.
