"Battle" hits with surprisingly punchy FM drums, while "Sea Vacation" shimmers with that tinny, warm glow only old sound chips produce. "Knight-erranty" has a march quality that makes sending your daughter into the wilderness feel appropriately dramatic.
"Sickness" and "Horrifying Shock" go darker than you'd expect from a parenting sim. The whole thing sounds like 1993 bottled in amber. Perfect for anyone who thinks FM synth is an underappreciated art form.
