Popular Reviews of Marsfall

A great show that starts off amazing and carries that momentum! Fantastic writing, sound design, dialogue, characters, premise, and execution, while including complex scientific concepts that I'm still scratching my head over long after listening.

This show is THE SHIT.

One of my recent discoveries. It literally feels like you're listening to a movie. Excellent sound design, and superb acting! Give this one a shot and you won't regret it one bit. ANDI is the best.

Great production values and a really interesting sci-fi premise. Really enjoying it and eager to see where it goes.

Enjoyable space drama. Easy to follow along and very likable characters. Felt a little anticlimactic.

It's really all about the humans (and the AI) and their relationships, hopes, struggles and victories. Amazing way of telling a story, set in a SciFi world. I love the dialogue, it's both funny, scary and really well written. One of my absolute favorite space adventures.

A superb science fantasy! There is something strange and wonderful happening in this show. Not only is it a true stand out sci-fi audio drama (there are only a few that come close) but this Martian survival story travels in uncanny directions. Mysteries within mysteries and vicious conspiracies abound, not to mention a really fresh take on A.I... Put Marsfall at the top of your list.

If you like science-fiction story telling then this one will not disappoint. Told from different points-of-view using multiple characters, it is a tale that takes you on a grand journey!

Not my style. I just couldn't get into this one.

i think i like it? i'm not sure. it sure is gripping, i've pretty much binged it in a couple of days because the episodes are short and there are constant happenings going on. my only nit pick would be that too much is happening to the point that i became frustrated and just gave up enjoying, sometimes i was just listening to the episode with "maybe it will make sense later" thoughts in my head, which is not the thoughts you want to have with this kind of story. the characters are not memorable, i haven't got attached to any of them and the only reason i've understood what happened overall is because i've listened to the recap of season 1 and 2 (which is not something a listener should feel like doing if they have been listnening to the same thing for the past 10 hours)

A really excellent podcast and a joy to listen to

One of the first podcasts I got into, I really can't gush about it enough. One of the best audio dramas out there.

I really liked this one! Great voice acting, solid script, amazing music, and characters I actually cared about.

I want to give all of them a big hug. Except from Fay. I started listened almost by chance and then the story just caught me. Waiting for the new season!

Great effects, but couldn't get into the story.

There's a lot going on in this, and it got a little crazy at times, but I overall enjoyed the story and performances. I'm not sure if there are going to be more seasons, though I hope so, as right now a lot of plot threads are still dangling and I want to know how it all comes together. It does stretch the bounds of believability, but hey, it's science fiction. Very imaginative show.

I really don't understand why this podcast is so highly praised. The performances are amateurish. In listening to this, I feel as if the producers think they are smarter than the audience, even when they haven't earned this. They also really haven't done all that much research upon Mars. Read a Kim Stanley Robinson book instead! This is awful!

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 expands what science fiction can be - & not just in audio fiction. If sci-fi adventure or just a great ensemble drama is your thing, give this one shot, & I promise you'll be hooked.

This show is brilliant. It's expertly acted, scored, and produced. Many, many times I have listened and been literally SWEATING with anxiety. It's just incredibly atmospheric and sucks me in every time. So, so incredibly good and worth listening to.

Good story. I like all the twists and turns, and would love to see another episode that explains everything, including what's at Olympus Mons.
