While this was quite a good desaster story, I'm still a bit dissappinted. I just expected more.
More complex characters, a more detailed and earlier explanation of the event, so it can be explored further and be more of a focus, and a story that hasn't been done so often.
It is what it wants to be and does it's thing well, the characters are fun if a bit one-dimensional  it creates stakes that feel meaningful and keeps you guessing. It just didn't focus on what I was interested in.
