INDIKA Original Soundtrack

🖤 INDIKA's Haunting Soundtrack Now Available! 💛


Greetings, lost souls and wayward nuns!

The INDIKA Original Soundtrack has escaped its divine (or perhaps, devilish?) confinement and is now available everywhere! Composed by Mike Sabadash, this auditory journey will take you back to our alternate Russia at the turn of the XIX century, where the line between holy and unholy blurs like a feverish dream.



[h2]What (un)holy melodies await?[/h2]

  • 24 tracks of mind-bending, soul-stirring music
  • A perfect blend of eerie atmospherics and classic 8-bit chiptune elements
  • Each track named after a book of the Bible’s Old Testament (because why not mix the sacred with the profane?)
  • From "Genesis" to "Apocalypse," with some surprising stops in between


Whether you're questioning your faith, chatting with the devil, or just enjoying a leisurely stroll through surreal landscapes, this soundtrack is your perfect companion.

[h2]Where to find this auditory temptation?[/h2]

The INDIKA OST is available on all major music platforms. Go forth and listen, but remember – headphones are recommended. We can't be held responsible for any existential crises that may occur in public spaces.

"We wanted to create a soundtrack that makes you question your sanity, just like our dear Indika. Mission accomplished?" - Mike Sabadash, probably…


[h2]A match made in... somewhere[/h2]
This heavenly (or hellish) collaboration between 11 bit studios and Milan Records marks our second foray into the world of surreal soundscapes. First - the Frostpunk 2, now INDIKA – we're on a roll!



So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the INDIKA OST and let your ears experience the same delightful confusion as your eyes did in the game!

Stay odd, stay questioning, and happy listening!

Your ever-enigmatic friends at 11 bit studios

[h3]P.S.[/h3]
If you start hearing voices after listening to the soundtrack, don't worry. That's probably just Mike Sabadash whispering the secrets of the universe directly into your brain. Totally normal.
