Started strong but unfortunately lost it at the end

The first two seasons were pretty good. Then they decided to start with these mini episodes. There is more advertisement run time followed with the writers speaking about more advertising for their other shows, or rambling on about delays in producing the content, every time, with literally only...Read full review »

The commander has a great voice when it’s just her regular speaking one. When she goes up an octave it’s like broken glass on a chalkboard. This may have been bad audio engineering or bad direction. Either way it could’ve been fixed if the producer or director listened to it and was honest with...Read full review »

I loved this podcast. Are you going to do more with Jacki’s girlfriend?? I’ve been patiently waiting a loooong time for a continuation!

If we are to believe this is a group of people to settle and be an outpost for Earth I think they would be smarter. This lacks any sophistication and intelligence. The story is often delivered through bad writing, massive overacting, screaming and heavy breathing and a dose of profanity. Ugh,...Read full review »

There’s not a single production weakness in Marsfall, which is why it’s such a powerful show, & why the scope of what it can do is incredibly vast! Eric, Dan, Sam, Brian, & the entire cast & crew have such a strong vision & the deft hands necessary to carry it out. Marsfall...Read full review »

(TLDR: for the love of god save yourself the time and listed to “Escaping Denver” instead. Acting and story is much better) I listened to almost an entire season thinking I was missing something because it was reviewed highly. But no, it was like listening to child actors who over act by...Read full review »

I desperately want to love Marsfall. But there’s always something in the way. Voice actors that aren’t reacting in an emotional appropriate way. Mysteries that only compound, and don’t have satisfying answers. The action sequences that don’t have a feeling of stakes or ANY spacial reasoning. The...Read full review »

I’ve listened to Marsfall since season one was still in the process of airing and it’s one of those gems of varied characters, interesting story and very well done audio drama that has continued to be amazing. I can’t help but wonder where the story will take us next.

This was one of my favourites for the first two seasons. But someone has clearly lost his/her writing mojo in season three. It’s terrible.
DGMCanada via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/07/21
Seasons 1 & 2 were great but just listened to the first three episodes of season 3 and it’s like a completely different show. For the episodes being so short, you would think the episodes would contain more substance. It’s like the writers have no idea where to go with the story and are just...Read full review »

Eh.
I wanted to like it but the characters were written just so badly. It sounded and felt like the actors went off script at times and couldn’t find their way back. Add to it sophomoric and wildly inappropriate for the moment banter and it earns an unfollow.

I just started listening first 2 episodes I am hooked amazing keep it coming

This has been a blast to listen to ! Check it out if your looking for a thriller!

Yes the intro is cheesy. Yes the voice acting can be shaky at times. But listen if you’re the kind of person who goes to a play and doesn’t like it because it’s not realistic enough, then sure, you won’t like this. But if you add a little suspension of disbelief, then you’ll be fine. If you...Read full review »

I wondered, at first, what on earth I’d chosen. As it turns out, it’s a rather gripping, dramatic yet not ‘heavy’ story; very ‘listenable’ and well acted and produced. Well done!
Doc Johnnie via Apple Podcasts · Thailand · 03/28/21
Mixed bag with more positives thanks negatives. Foly work isn’t the best at times nor is acting but I am enjoying it overall. .
JohnnyPappas via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/21
If you’ve listened to really good sci-fi fiction and need something new, give this a listen. There are better podcasts in the same genre, but this isn’t bad.
justkaty via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/21
Intro song is very iconic. What’s with Fboy being upset about the intro song? Also, where’s the conclusion folks. Grumble grumble grumble. Podcast is incredible. Thanks guys.
Zackadamianut via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/21
It’s a good premise but that’s where it ends. As others have pointed out, the acting is high school drama level. The writing is even worse. A podcast needs great dialogue and descriptive writing, this has neither. Much of the dialogue consists of grunts, groans, and when sentences are actually...Read full review »

She sounds like she’s 12. And the script has her alternating from strong commander to the little girl who lives down the street. I can’t get past the first 10 min.
Maddengod via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/20
The worst intro song on the entire World Wide Web. If one was to obtain a pair if air pod pros the last thing they want to hear come out of those beautiful white pearls is the screeching, ear bending, stupid, horrible random noises you people call an intro song. Shame on you. I will fast forward....Read full review »

While this isn’t my FAVORITE podcast, it’s interesting enough to hold my attention. Most of the acting is decent, though there are definitely some less-than-stellar actors. The things I find most irritating are some of the sound effects (I’ll never understand why some producers think it’s awesome...Read full review »

I really am enjoying the story, even though the timeline seems off (I’m in season 2, so I’m assuming they’ll fix that sooner or later). The only real issue I have with this is that they really drag certain parts out unnecessarily. It really detracts from the story, takes me out of the...Read full review »
spazmaticpyro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/20
Keep your expectations low and it passes the time fairly well enough. I think it’s typically rated higher than it deserves due to the lack of quality sci-fi podcasts in general so it’s all relative. The storyline is decent but everything else about the production, acting, writing, etc is high...Read full review »
Big MJF89 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/09/20
It kinda starts out “meh” but it gets really really intense. I’m listening to it a second time because I liked it so much. The voice acting isn’t bad at all, maybe the other reviewers just didn’t give it long enough to realize that’s just how the character they dislike is supposed to be. It...Read full review »

Love the series and am thrilled for the third season
Volgende x beter via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 02/27/20
This should be a 1 Star just because of the amplified drinking sounds directly into your ears. The over exaggerate gulping sounds is nearly unbearable. Great story though
Hughjasole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/20
I want to like it more, but lackluster writing, subpar acting, and lack of any noticeable concrete knowledge of key elements the story relies on leave this drama sitting solely in the middle ground. The story is compelling enough and the characters aren’t terrible, but overall it lacks polish in...Read full review »

Some of the worst writing and worst acting o have ever had the displeasure of experiencing. I’m not sure who paid the other reviewers but this is bad. The jokes are juvenile and fall flat, the acting is middle school play levels of bad and the writing reeks of “I saw an episode of Star Trek...Read full review »

Bad
Terrible acting. I tried to listen several times because the story was ok. But I couldn’t take the third rate acting.
Creeper103 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/19
Simply drivel. Uninspiring, poorly written drivel.
1847773 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/19
This is a great, well written sci-fi story; but it is also so much more. The characters are intricate, including the artificial intelligence. The sound design, music, and acting is top notch.
SciFyGeek via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/12/19
Really enjoyed the twists and turns and the focus of different characters each episode. Can’t wait for season 3!
Nikkibee87 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/22/19
This show rocks. I need more.
MovieMan28 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/19
The sound effects and immersion is fantastic. Kudos to all the guys working behind and the voice actor. But for me the maturity of the characters and relationships are not complex and real world like. They are too gamey/sinister like a simple board game. Great potential otherwise in the story...Read full review »

Too annoying to listen to. Try Mars audiobook instead
Ash8787421780 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/19
I was on the fence for the first episode but as I continued listening I got sucked in by the third or fourth. The music got a lot better by the third and fourth episode as well. Great story and great acting!! It’s lovely to find yet another great sci-fi audio drama!
NateDawg221 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/19
The histrionic acting really detracted from the story. The performances were really uneven and anoying. The AI portrayal was innacurate. I gave it a try for a season a half and gave up on listening to the rest.
abedwell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/19
I like listening to the story as I walk
RicRome93 via Apple Podcasts · Italy · 08/15/19
If you’re looking for a good sci-fi podcast, this is the one! Compelling storyline with super plot twists, great voice actors, terrific soundtrack... the whole thing is quite the experience! Eagerly awaiting for Season 3!
LwllGmz via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/13/19
I love this podcast. The story is engaging and the acting and sound really makes you feel like your in the story. Awesome work guys!!!!!
Shaushau via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/19
His is a fantastic series. Fun character studies mixed with interesting stories makes this a great listen. I only wish the series skipped the terrible intro music.
JH_MI via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/19
I made the mistake of listening to Marsfall as my first fiction podcast. Everything else falls flat
ElektrikRobot via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/20/19
As other reviewers have said the writing is excellent, the cast great and it’s a compelling storyline. High recommend!
Unlikley9 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/19/19
I’ve been looking for a good narrative podcast to balance the lighthearted ones I listen to, and I wasn’t disappointed!!! I hope there’s more and can’t wait :( The sound design and quality is also what kept me HOOKED. Thank you for this amazing podcast! May Earth rise high above the horizon.
Argyne654 via Apple Podcasts · Philippines · 07/03/19
Had it not been for the soundtrack of this series I would have rated it 4 stars. Throughout the series the musical score seems to combat the emotional narrative of the scenes, during dramatic moments the musical score may be upbeat and lively, or a weird selection of synthesizer music or beats...Read full review »
