Customer Reviews
Incredibly well done!
As a big fan of science fiction audio podcasts, as well as video games, I am overwhelmed by how good this is. Striking Distance and the audio team behind this did an amazing job! Well worth the listen.
Skilled team copied the greats, made something great
Never touched the game, and from what I can tell, this far surpassed it. Gwendoline Christie and Michael Ironside delivered as screen actors I knew going in, the remaining cast did great as well, and the production had me awestruck several times.
Sure, it copied most of the great “monsters in space” stories of all time. And like a skilled painter tracing the Mona Lisa, they still made something great. Side note: worth it for the finale alone. Well done.
Dope
Amazing experience
