With just one episode of The Acolyte remaining, there’s a number of floor nonetheless to cowl and mysteries to be solved (however there could possibly be much more to discover in a possible Season 2). IGN’s evaluate of Episode 7 famous that it offered “a number of data,” however some revelations are offset by “very irritating and infrequently foolish specifics.”
