Popular Reviews of DERELICT

This is a review for Fathom, the prequel to Derelict.As everyone has noted the sound design is wonderfully atmospheric. The echoing booms of eddies against the station walls and the clang of machinery. You feel like you're right there with 19,000 feet of water waiting to crush you.I love a good competence porn story. Give me an unraveling disaster and a character with brains and gumption sifting through and discarding solutions, and I lap it up. The reward is not in characters being automatically right, but in being able to follow their thought processes. Especially, when something goes awry and they have to correct on the fly. How are they going to get out of this situation? I had my heart in my throat at moments wondering if the characters would survive because the show sets up scenarios where the odds seem so slim. But the writers do the work of explaining how and why one can survive, so that it turns dumb luck into smart luck.

So promising, like a Hollywood production. The sound design is simply outstanding, and of course the writing and acting is phenomenal.

Really amazing work. What a pity that there seems to be no second episode, could have been one of my favourite audio dramas.

I just finished the Fathom season and am looking forward to Derelict. It did take a couple of episodes to get into it, but then I was hooked. And the final episode did not disappoint - incredible! Both the acting and sound quality is amazing as well.

I've been circling this feed for months wondering what it's all about. Thought it might have died but later noticed more episodes being produced. The author provides a succinct and satisfying explanation for the erratic release schedule so I decided to give it a go. Below is a recounting of my journey from being idly interested to a full-blown zealot for this show and the team behind it.E1 intriguing and exciting, perfect pilotE2 oh wow this is tense I think I'm all inE3 this has an interesting mix of influences I wonder what they're going to keep it frE4 holy moly oh no oh dang no no noE5 hey neat we have a whole other thing going over hereE6 they have those too? oh shoot holy crap run run r u nE7 phew thank goodness they made it out of oh no oh beansE8 should call my Dr about these heart palpitations just as soon as they pull thrE9 hello lawyer please give them all of the money now please yes all of it

A very impressive production! Everything is so well done, it's a must if you love sci-fi!

The acting, sound design, and storyline are all amazing.

Wow. This show is... intense. Maybe don't listen if you've got a fear of water, yeah? But for the rest of us, this is non-stop action that keeps delivering, with a rich soundscape that will leave you breathless.

Top quality. Totally awesome, production quality, sound stage, acting, 2nd to none. Genuinely thrilling sci fi adventure. Cant wait for the conclusion(fathom) & season 2 (derelict) to continue. This should be picked up for a TV series.

Outstanding !!!

Awesome!

An extremely immersive podcast that's hard to listen to yet even harder to put down. I don't usually go for horror or thrillers, but the writing and stellar acting had me at the edge of my seat every episode. My one complaint would be that the sound design is sometimes too loud, though that's clearly an intentional choice.
