Candela Obscura follows an esoteric order of investigators as they use centuries of knowledge to fight back a mysterious source of corruption and bleed. The first chapter of Candela Obscura stars veteran voice actors Robbie Daymond, Laura Bailey, Anjali Bhimani, and Ashley Johnson and the story is led by Matthew Mercer.  Leveraging gaming as a story mechanic, the series features the Candela Obscura roleplaying game from Darrington Press, which is designed with the Illuminated Worlds system.
The Candela Obscura podcast is an incredible new roleplaying game that takes the genre of Supernatural Horrors to the next level. From start to finish, this show offers a thrilling and engaging experience that keeps listeners on the edge of their seats. The characters, led by the outstanding performance of Ashley, bring depth and complexity to the story, while GM Spencer Starke's brutal and amazing approach in Chapter 2 adds an extra layer of intensity. With just the right amount of spookiness, this podcast captivates its audience from beginning to end.
One of the best aspects of The Candela Obscura podcast is its production value. The attention to detail and high-quality sound effects create an immersive experience for listeners. It truly feels like being transported into a steampunky magical world where supernatural horrors lurk around every corner. Additionally, Matt Mercer's legendary descriptions and smooth handling of unexpected twists make this show a true treat for fans of roleplaying games.
The chemistry between the voice actors is another highlight of this podcast. Each member of the cast brings something unique to the table, with high moments where they steal the show. Robbie and his character idea particularly stand out, providing countless hilarious moments that had me laughing out loud. However, it's important to note that while Robbie shines, every member of the crew contributes to making The Candela Obscura what it is—a fantastic storytelling experience.
Although The Candela Obscura has many strengths, one potential downside is its reliance on prior knowledge from Critical Role. For those who are unfamiliar with or haven't watched thousands of hours of Critical Role content before diving into this podcast, there may be some elements or references that go over their heads. While not necessarily a major issue, it could potentially hinder full enjoyment for those new to Critical Role.
In conclusion, The Candela Obscura podcast is a must-listen for fans of critical role-playing games and supernatural stories alike. Its engaging characters, interesting plot, and top-notch production value create an enthralling experience that leaves listeners wanting more. While some prior knowledge of Critical Role may enhance the enjoyment, this podcast stands on its own as a brilliant example of live radio play mixed with a thrilling Dungeons and Dragons campaign. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a unique and captivating storytelling experience.
