Popular Reviews of The Cipher

Really well produced and high quality acting with an interesting enough premise. However, it seemed to have gone off the rails a bit in the middle and it kind of became hard to really understand everything going on. It was also really short which is fine, but they tried to squeeze way too much in for how much time they had.

Great voice acting and plot. Looking forward to 2nd season.

Great premise, great start, starting to fall off now we are half way through the series, so many ideas, such a short podcast.

Kind of jumps the shark in the middle of the season.

It was lovely to listen to. Engaging, intriguing, and suspenseful enough to keep the listeners interest piqued.

Top-notch voice acting, excellent sound effects, and a compelling story - what more could one want from a podcast? The Cipher truly has it all.

Gripping, exciting, but perhaps with a little too much plot for the run time. This would really benefit from a second series to explore things a bit more. Good listen and flies by, great acting.

Run here, don't ask questions. Get in the van, don't ask questions. Go in this room, don't ask questions. Run there, don't ask questions. Other than that, nothing. No pay off.Beautifully recorded though.

Like almost all BBC Sounds drama podcasts, you can expect a great story, great voice acting, and excellent production. The Cipher is a fantastic podcast. Give it a listen!

Fantastic production, really well acted and with an interesting premise. Great for nerdy SF fans like myself as, like some people comment, can seem a bit silly midpoint onwards; but I dug it. Would listen to another season.
