Feiser stated,” There is a lot in the DNA that is kind of close to Dark in terms of the puzzle and needing an engaged active audience,” also added,” But there are also things that are quite different in terms of atmosphere and tonality, but also pacing and more action stuff happening. So it is truly a beast of its own, but shares a lot of the same may be mechanisms as Dark does. Hopefully, it feels like something really fresh and new, while still [being] exactly what Dark fans would like to watch.”
Odar explained,” We do love to play with genres and expectations,” and also added,” I think you have to watch carefully because every little piece means something.”.
