High Quality Cinematic Audiobook

If you really enjoy listening to books with all the sound effects and the vocal acting then you will REALLY enjoy this one right here. All the sounds were high quality and done in a really good cinematic arrangement and I just really need some more.

Story is incomplete but WHAT a ride!

If you're standing in line at the grocery store or waiting on the metro or on hold with customer service and you just need a little distraction, these super short, well produced, well acted episodes are great.

Heads up, this is season 1 and it ends on a big reveal cliffhanger. Apparently season 2 never got made so don't expect to be satisfied at the ending of the last episode.

One annoying thing is the length of the intro and outro on each episode. No need for such a long theme song at the beginning and end when the content itself is fewer than 12 minutes.

ouch my ears!

Story - great
Sound effects - great except the "headache" noise is SO loud and hurts my ears! it happens for at least 20 seconds every episode. By the second episode it was like "enough already we get it!" I don't need the headache sound to be so realistic that I get one!
I made it through because the story is that good and the episodes are short, but please ffs fix that for season 2

Big Finish Does it again

Always the best audio dramas out there. No one does it better. Make season two half hour episodes please.

Pumped

The Podcast was amazing, very intense asnywell acted. Hopefully there will be more to this series. The ending was definitely a cliff hanger. Hopefully this gets picked up and turned into a TV series.

Interesting - Needs a Little More Polish

I enjoyed the story, and I am interested in seeing what comes next, but there are a few things that could make it better. There should be lines included to help you know who's talking, particularly when there are multiple characters in a scene of the same gender. Also, there could be more explanation of what is happening in rooms/scenes. Since it's audio, we need more descriptions so the listener can visualize what's happening or where the characters are. But again, I enjoyed it, and I'd love to hear where they take the story next.

Needs more story, less...other stuff.

Great story but episodes too short and too much "you've been listening to..." stuff.
There's more of that and the whole action music intro and close-out than the story itself.

Series 2 Due in 2021...?

This is too short. Not enough content. Looks like they didn't bother with Series 2.
