RATING
Solid BBC podcast. Good voice acting and plot that keeps you guessing what the truth actually is.
From the makers of The CYPHER, the BBC does it again!
A good production that falls short compared to the fantastic Passenger List and The Cypher; not as well written or engaging. The acting and sound design are good, but it has too much narration for a fiction Podcast and the plot twists just don't make it for me. I imagine it has been inspired by the great Ready Player One. I love vintage video games, but this one didn't trap me like I would have.
It's a game within a game within a game, and you're still left guessing every episode where in the Matrix our protagonist resides. Constant twists and turns, an energetic cast and lots of easter eggs for video gamers, though you don't need to be one to enjoy it, Restart makes the most of its "is this reality" trope, and for that to make sense your full attention is required.
Not what I expected but well worth the listen if you like slow burn suspense.
I find conversion therapy abhorrent, and this fictional account drives that home even more. And this show sounds great, with exceptional actors and production. It's a winner!
Twists and turns until you're not quite sure what is going on, but if you wanted a mash-up of video game suspense and kids trying to escape the 'troubled teen' industry, this is it!
Fun mystery series
