Came for the masterfully crafted suspense, stayed for the brothers who refused to let go of each other. (Seriously, the development and depth of Roman and Elliotโs relationship makes me CRY. No wonder real life siblings brought this world to life!) The worldbuilding grows ever more complex with every season, with many rich veins left to explore at the storyโs conclusion. Thereโs also some fun cameos from other indie AD voices :) I canโt wait to see what else might be in store in the Wake universe!

WOW ! Fantastic Horror Story!
๐Absolutely 5 Stars โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ WOW! If you like Horror Fiction with twists you donโt see coming? THIS IS FOR YOU. Iโm a bonafide Podcast Junkie and this one is at the TOP of my list. It amazes me that People can be this creative โฆI just wanted to BINGE the whole Show. Each Episode ends on a cliffhanger so you NEED to hear the next episode immediately. I kept reading how good this was from #AudioDramaSunday on Twitter.
UPDATE: Finished Season 3 which was just as fantastic as the rest of the Series. Happy that thereโs a Season 4 in the works but sad that โAll good things must come to an endโ and that S4 is the end.

Be Very Wake
Wake of Corrosion grasps the dystopian, post-apocalyptic horror genre with a disturbingly gentle grip. It strikes a wonderful balance of suspense and character-driven storytelling with vulnerable, well-drawn leads and performances you can't ignore. Their relationships shine through. It's a delightful slow burn.

First things first, if you are anything like me, know that things start slow. I was not satisfied with the drip feed mystery at the beginning, but it is critical to get a feel for the world and the main cast. I would suggest to anyone not hooked immediately to give it till the boys leave the forest.
The characters are unique and realistic, the world feels fleshed out and well put together, and the mystery of what on earth is going on is compelling.
If you like end of the world stories beyond a simple "zombie/alien/nuke" story, please check it out.

Good podcast, suspenseful, and I like the apocalyptic premise. It would be better with fewer narration sequences and more action, as the narration tends to slow things down. Also, Elliot can become a bit tiresome. Otherwise - looking forward to the second season and hoping it won't be too depressing.

Spins an enthralling yarn about the origin and cause of the end of the world, have not finished every episode yet but what I have listened to utilizes effective and believable sound effects and thoughtful pacing to creat a easily followed story, just don't expect to get ahead of it!

What elevates this story from similar ones in this genre is the clever way the same story is told three different ways. Each of the brothers has their own way of recording the events that happen to them, a written journal and a voice recorder. Not only do they give us different perspectives, but their medium demands a different account: immediate realism from the recorder, and thoughtful introspection from the journal. But this story unfolds a third way as well, from the future, where Prof. Ryan's attempts to piece what happened together. It's an engaging, scary tale with a strong structure.

I live in the mountains and "unwind" with this
I know its hard to relax with such tense elements but my favorite thing about audio fiction is how you basically ride on the shoulder of characters and get to experience their world that way. When I walk in the woods I listen to this and the immersive effect is fantastic all thanks to the storytelling.

Wake of corrosion is a journey, I have to say i was sold on the characters the second they started talking . My partner and I decided to binge the series while driving in traffic over a few days and we were constantly sharing theories about what was going on . . . phenominal :)

This an audio drama that made the right decisionswhere they count. Proper pacing, a natural story cadence, good sound effects. And often the downfall of many works of audio fiction is the dialogue, however, Wake of Corrosion nimbly dodges the chasm many productions fall into. Great job!

Right from the prelude, it pulls you into its gaping maw. The sound design in said prelude alludes to something enormous. It's terrifying.
From here, we go off-grid into the highlands of full episodes. Our guide, Professor Ryan, carefully explains an event of some magnitude has forever altered the landscape of earth. Careful attention has been allotted to the sound of Ryan: it is EQ'd to sound as if it blasts from a speaker which has fallen prey to oxidation.
The semi-found-footage format works very well here. These snippets are dangled strategically to leave the audience grasping for more.
The sound design and foley work is EXACTLY what I like: realism. So, admittedly, I'm biased. But, I found their approach appropriate for this story and it betrays a cunning behind the curtain; these guys thought this out.
It's always a challenge to review shows whilst avoiding spoilers. I shall just say that the episodes masterfully pull you in by dropping sufficient clues and curiosities at a perfect pace.
Beware this show if you've no time to binge an entire season.
It's that good.

Treading the familiar found footage route, Wake of Corrosion rises above other similar shows due to the compelling world and central mystery that carefully build throughout the first series. Like The White Vault, the mystery and isolation of the main characters ratchets up the tension, the questions, and our attachment to the two brothers.
There are absolutely terrifying and shocking moments, which I won't spoil here, but are played out to perfection.
I'd recommend this to any fan of audio horror.

Grimly Fantastic
Excellent quality, superbly immersive, uniquely mysterious and thought-provoking. This show strikes on a number of horror genres with segmented introduction to each, and a beautiful evolution from the wonderful and mundane into the horrifying and alien. I highly recommend.

Excellent
The two brothers played by actual brothers is stellar, as their sibling relationship instantly feels real. The rare moments of prose are well written and descriptive. The framing narrative seems kind of like an alternate universe Fallout game, with talk of Couriers and bunkers... but i never played fallout & i enjoyed s1 immensely either way.

Keeps Me Guessing
Caught up on Season 1.
Canโt wait for Season 2.
The actingโs a little rough at first, but the whole thing gets better and more interesting with each episode. No idea where this is going, which is great!
Hope the second season comes soon.

The Wake Of Horror...
This is terrifying... to the point of heart-stopping.
The story creeps up on you - like a burglar in a thunderstorm (right after the power goes out and you donโt know where you put the candles).
I find myself torn between wishing the story doesnโt EVER END... and wishing that it ends abruptly and they go home, no problem, and everything is fine and that nothing bad ever happened!

Immediately hooked
Great new show. Right from the start it grabbed my attention and joined that small group of shows that I drop what Iโm doing and listen to whenever a new episode drops. The acting/production is great and keeps the mood perfectly ominous. Hope this one goes the distance!
