“In just a few months I’ve raced through over a hundred episodes of this podcast. I’ve deferred holds on library books in favor of Explorers Wanted. Daniel manages to convey the singular bizarreness of Numenera without resorting to extended descriptions that would bog down action. The characters are complicated and messy and sincere. The group has great cohesion and momentum—every episode is an hour and they fit *so much* action and character into that time. If you aren’t a Cypher/Numenera player, the game mechanics are pretty simple and don’t interrupt the story. If you are a Cypher player or want to hear examples of play before learning a new system, this is a good start. I will also say don’t skip the short adventures in other settings between seasons. The Stars are Fire two-shots in particular are fantastic, cohesive stories. Explorers Wanted is just excellent all around, I highly recommend it.”
