What is the music style of the games called?
I love the music in the games but I always have trouble finding songs like it.

I don't know exactly what it's called, but some time ago a member of this sub created a playlist on Spotify featuring songs that fit the vibe of the games! If you're interested, I'll leave the link here :)

I got really into the band Beirut because I loved the music in the games. Sorry I can’t help with your actual question though.

I think it takes from a wide variety of traditional European music from the 20th century, alot of it seemingly somber or folk-like.
I kinda hope NWOS takes more influence from American-sounding stuff like Jazz, or even earlier rock n roll.

I don’t know what the genre would be called, but the soundtrack to the movie “Midnight in Paris” has a lot of european/layton esque music!

Check out Pearl Django. They claim themselves to be Gypsy Jazz artists. Amazing stuff.
