Dread. Pure atmospheric dread soaking through every second. Ad Infinitum is a WWI psychological horror game and this soundtrack sounds like the trenches never ended.

The score shifts between quiet grief and full-blown terror. Tracks like "Crawling" and "Dark Corridors" do exactly what you'd expect, but "Heimat" (Home) hits different when you know what this game puts you through. There's a lot of silence between the horror.
That's where it gets you. If you want a horror soundtrack that understands war trauma as well as it understands jump scares, this one cuts deep.
