Our Editor's Take

The Left Right Game is a supernatural audio drama. It stars Tessa Thompson, who is also the producer of the podcast. Thompson is an actor with years of experience on the stage and screen. She's known for her roles in the television series Westworld and Marvel's Thor film franchise. This is her first audio drama.

In The Left Right Game podcast, Thompson plays Alice Sharman, a young journalist eager for career advancement. Alice happens upon a group of friends who share an interest in the supernatural and paranormal. They like to play something called the Left/Right Game. At first, the game seems like harmless fun. But the game soon leads the friends, and Alice, into an alternate world. Escape is unlikely, survival is uncertain, and hope is ebbing away.

A few years after Alice vanishes, an old school friend receives a strange package. It contains what might be Alice's final recordings, including that of her disappearance. Over ten episodes, listeners accompany Alice as she descends into a bizarre universe. There are more questions than answers. Reality appears strange and altered. On the outside, Alice's friends unravel the mystery behind her vanishing. But nobody seems to believe that she's gone or ever existed. The story's setting takes fans around the world. The podcast takes listeners to the austere buildings of Edinburgh University. The story also travels down the dusty streets of Phoenix, Arizona.

This Left Right Game podcast features excellent acting. It also has a compelling storyline and award-winning audio production. Audio drama fans can enjoy this high-quality storytelling. Sci-fi fans new to the audio format will appreciate the writer's creativity. Anyone who loves a good story can appreciate the parallel plot stories and twists.

OUT NOW! Dungeon Masters
Aug 12 2024
OUT NOW! Dungeon Masters
Dungeon Masters takes a behind-the-curtain look into the world of Dungeons & Dragons, told through the lenses of the creator of the game, Gary Gygax, played by Wil Wheaton and of private investigator, William Dear, played by Jon Hamm, a swashbuckling tough guy in 1979. Gygax guides the audience through this incredible true story as our Dungeon Master, as we follow Dear on his quest to find Dallas Egbert, a Michigan State student, who supposedly disappeared in the steam tunnels under his University while enacting a real-life version of D&D. What Dear encounters on this journey and ultimately discovers, defies all expectations, and changes the culture as we know it. Written by award-winning journalist and author, David Kushner, based on his interviews with Gary Gygax, his research and writing about Dungeons & Dragons (RISE OF THE DUNGEON MASTER), and the missing person case which inadvertently made the game (in)famous. Produced by Jon Hamm, Temple Hill and QCODE.
