"Light" opens with something almost warm before the rest of the album pulls you underwater. "Tension (Chase)" shifts into this frantic, distorted synth panic that genuinely startled me the first time. Then "Emptiness" is just...
nothing and negative space done right. "Terror Synth" leans fully into retro horror territory with these gritty, lo-fi textures that match the game's PS1 aesthetic perfectly. "Sanctuary Caves" and "Sanctuary City" build this false sense of safety that the game immediately rips away.
If you like your horror games dripping with atmosphere before anything even happens, this OST already has you surrounded.
