Empty landscapes, muted visuals, sound of the machinery and especially the soundtrack create a oddly comforting feeling.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
51 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
EDIT: oh ya the soundtrack is freakin' great too, but I don't think a great soundtrack makes games "more fun" or "more recommendable" when it comes to actually playing the game itself.
