"Circus" has a wonky, slightly melancholic charm, like a music box running down. "Underground" goes darker, heavier, with a low rumble that makes you feel the weight of the world above. Twelve tracks total, each named for a location, each perfectly sized for getting lost in a little diorama.
The early version of "Underground" at the end is a nice peek behind the curtain. If you like your puzzle game soundtracks quiet and strange and a little sad, this one fits.
