Description
Sound in menus augments players' Awareness for their actions. Frequently it is possible to feel at least three kinds of semantics in menus sounds: navigation ('neutral' sounds), acceptance ('positive' sounds), refusal ('negative' sounds).
In same games, sound in menus is also playful. Sometimes it is a matter of Aesthetics, other times it relates to the game design that extends the gameplay into the menu. In particular cases there is even a feeling that when accessing the menus the user does not leave the Acoustic Ecology of the game world.
