Common questions about volcano
What does a volcanic eruption sound like?
Booms, a low continuous roar, and rock falling back to the ground. Erupting Volcano 04 has the blast and falling rock, and Deep Rumbling Volcano 08 has the rumble before it.
How loud is a volcanic eruption?
The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa was heard nearly 3,000 miles away. In a game or film, set the level yourself: a distant one like Distant Volcano 03 often does more than a full blast.
