Customer Reviews
Gripping!
Great writing, unique storyline and excellent effects make this an addictive and immersive show. Loved it!
Reliance on sound over narrative a problem
The show touts itself as being groundbreaking in its use of sound, and certainly the sound seems well done, but it doesn't go far enough to tell the story. Unfortunately, the dialogue doesn't make up for it, so you spend a lot of time waiting for someone to explain what's happening. There is quite a large cast, further complicated by the fact that they all have code names, and that makes who said/did what even more confusing. I don't regret listening to all 10 episodes, but I do feel they wasted some of the story's potential.
Fantastic podcast
I stumbled across this podcast by accident and I’m so glad I did. This was an incredibly immersive and intriguing story. I couldn’t stop listening - I was hooked from start to finish. I don’t understand the reviews which criticized the ending. I thought everything wrapped up nicely. I also thought the sound quality was incredible and the voice acting excellent. Definitely recommend.
