"Intriguing. This gives me "The Man in the High Castle" or "West World" vibes, of course. I definitely recommend. Hopefully there will be a second season. "

"This is a great series. Yes, it is multi-layered. Just like The Expanse, it may give you a bit of a headache to understand the deeper plot when presented with it. But I say, just go with it. There is a fully fleshed out story with characters that you care about. There is enough great acting and smaller subplots to keep you interested. Hang in there, you will get your questions answered. (Unfortunately, this series was cancelled in September 2023. No second season.)"

"A sci-fi mystery set in the future about a brother and sister being giving a new virtual reality game to after getting to a high level, with the new game brings a mystery and threats to their family. Based off a book of the same name it’s worth watching for the mystery that surrounds the characters!"

"Initially, I was interested in watching this, but when I sat down with it, I struggled to get into it. I actually gave up about halfway through. Maybe I'll go back to it, to give it another try at a later date. But for now I'll give it 6/10."

"Just started watching this and am hooked. Only 2 episodes, so far. Can't wait for the rest of the show to come out!!"

"The first two episodes of this Matrixy sci-fi show are probably one of my top 10 movies of the year. Original, good action and who doesn’t love Chloe Grace? She’s the best. It’s crazy to try to keep up on the details tho."

"I've been impatiently waiting for this show to start which lived up to lofty expectations: based on the work of William Gibson, from the creators of Westworld, and of course Chloe Grace Moretz."

"This show has such an intriguing concept and is well executed. Time travel, Artificial Intelligence, Apocalypse, and pure Sci-Fi/ Fantasy. It has it all and so much more. While this show was slightly different than I imagined it was just as good as I hoped it would be. 10/10. Fingers crossed for a new season."

"Pretty cool sci-fi. Although I (finally) managed to get myself to finish the season, I'm still not sure what's going on exactly or who the antagonist is. It's something you really have to pay attention to because one missed detail will make the rest of the story hard to understand."
