Comments on: Masq https://www.pentadact.com/2007-11-10-masq/ We're back on a default theme because comments broke on my custom one and I don't have the energy to figure out why Sat, 29 Dec 2007 11:41:37 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.1 By: Iain https://www.pentadact.com/2007-11-10-masq/#comment-24213 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 13:42:12 +0000 http://www.kfj.f2s.com/index.php/2007-11-10-masq#comment-24213 (Warning: Spoilers ahead!)

I’ve been playing this all week now, and I’ve managed to find out who killed Carlos, I’ve been shot by Williams, shot by Nikki, thrown in jail, had Susan get abducted, had Susan leave me, had Peter get killed by Williams and been framed for the murder, and lots, lots more.

The level of intricacy in the multi-branching is amazing – and there are still at least five endings shown in the “Scenes you may have missed” that I’ve not found how to get to yet: Nikki tied up in the MASQ costume, Susan punching Williams in the face, ending up with Nikki and Andrew on the beach and getting confronted by the police when Williams tries to have Capricho killed at the show…

Any ideas on how to get the beach ending? I really struggling with that one.

So on the other hand, yay, a game I wanted to see made got made. Here’s hoping it spawns a genre.

I haven’t solved the murder of Carlos yet, though.

It’s working again, although I literally didn’t change anything. Perhaps a restart of the computer was all that was required, but other than that I have no idea why.

I keep getting the list error thing, where the web site says the solution is to have more memory. I have 2GB, and more than 100GB HDD space, so it’s not that… :(

I ended up really disliking it because of its limitations. While there are a lot of possible endings, some of the plot is railroaded. I had no idea what was going on when that guy from work kept driving me to the bad guy’s house halfway through, because my first few tries I wasn’t reacting the way the game was expecting me to and it lost all sense of logical continuity in order to carry on with its essential scenes.
