Customer Reviews
Fascinating World Building!
Excited to see a focus on world-building! This is a fascinating listen about other worlds, realities, and lives. And though they may seem foreign at first, this is a creative way to connect and understand human lives from an outside point of view.
First review!
Good start. Good episode length but wouldn't mind if it was 20 minutes. Would enjoy hearing more of how these humans became extinct/went to war with eachother.
