5/31/2023 0 Comments The complete masks of nyarlathotepWe felt all along like retarded chilren playing a story decided in advance where "Freedom of choice" was but a ketchup trademark. As linear as a DOS program, and being drowned by game aids or choosing "which country to go first" does not help build up flexibility. You start with a very classical beginning (a friend of yours has dissapeared) before setting on a ever-repeating routine of "find the witness"->"grab and menace the witness"->"follow the over-evident clues"->"shoot the cultists", before learning more material to find more cults and shoot more cultists and monsters. ![]() ![]() Though it is true the quality of most RPG campaigns and adventures is low, the Masks did appear to me much more of a dungeon crawl or a Paranoia shoot-out than anything else. Great and profound disappointment was the result. After reading so many positive comments about the Masks of Nyarlathotep, I bought the book for my wife who happens to be our "Cthulhu" GM for quite a while, having notably mastered the best homemade Call of Cthulhu campaign our group ever had (with consensus from all players).
