  • Good but short and incomplete

    Really great reading experience, it feels fresh and potentially really deep and immersive. The only problem is that feeling breaks apart when you reach the end of the books content in 5 minutes. I want to really sink into this, but the creators decided to release it before it is finished. The story is interesting, enough so that I purchased the available content, and 5 minutes later the chapter was over and I was left wanting more. I think for something this nice and polished, it would have made more sense to finish it all (or at least a large chunk of it) and sell it as a finished product. The current length is very unsatisfying. Also, just an aesthetic nit pick: some of the flickering could be dialed back a bit, it hurt my eyes. Otherwise, brilliant presentation.

  • Just beautiful.

    Stunning in form and clever in execution, and the story seems super promising as of the end of chapter two. I'd challenge anyone to take a gander at the free chapter and remain unimpressed. The subsequent ones aren't cheap, but £18 or so (according to current package pricing) for a complete graphic novel isn't unheard of, and this is the sort of thing I can see myself revisiting. In fact, I've already reread chapters one and two a couple times.

    One criticism: It would be nice to know when we can expect future chapters, especially once we've paid for them. Don't want to leave a nagging doubt that they'll never arrive.

  • Great story, Great App

    The story grabs you and the format lets it flow or be inter-cut in a way that adds to the narrative experience. Graphic art is beautifully rendered and the subtle 3D effects add to the experience. The music is fit into the story line and avoids the repetitiveness that can dull its effect in a game presentation. Read right through the first two episodes, can't wait for the rest!

  • Interesting...but

    Seems to be interesting...I'd be all in...BUT, I purchased 2nd chapter for $2 and seriously?? Had to be less than a hundred words. For 2 bucks!? With 18 chapters...that's like $40!
    I'd love to find out where this story goes, but way overpriced. WAY. Unless u have money to burn, stay away from this.

  • The future of comics...

    Love this. Very innovative and about time digital comics were actually designed for digital media and not just transposed from print!
  • Awesome interactive graphic novel

    Very seamless combination of visual, auditory and touch to create a memorable reading experience. All graphic novels should be done this way. I'm viewing this on my phone and it's amazing... imagine how much better it must be on a tablet. Only read the first chapter thus far, but like Clayton's previous work, it delves into the realm of science, and morality, and brings forth visually disturbing imagery to make a point. Will definitely purchase remaining chapters!

  • Hooked.

    Amazing story, all the elements are really well done and I cannot wait for the next chapters (seriously when do they come out)!!! I'm hooked, been thinking about this storyline all day.
  • Good

    Excellent animation and story however what will kill this app is the appalling pricing structure. It's far too expensive to buy all the chapters, include a season pass of say £5 and I might be stick with this. It's a great shame a promising app might disappear into the abyss.
  • Absolutely Amazing!

    This is the best reading experience I've ever had so far on a tablet!
    Can't wait for all the upcoming chapters. You just have to see it to believe it. Just download it!
  • Another In-App Purchase Rip-Off!

    It could cost you over £25 to view all 18 chapters!

    Don't start watching it or you could get hooked in.

    Also, it displays upside-down on my iPad.
