Game World Navigator MagazineDec 19, 2016You can’t just walk away from a hard fight to grind a little and bruteforce your way to victory, because Masquerada is totally linear. It’s for the best, however: Witching Hour Studios is a small team that had to secure funding through Kickstarter, so adding stuff like open world would definitely become an example of spreading resources too thin. But developers didn’t go that way, and as a linear game Masquerada truly shines, as it manages to successfully blend aesthetics of Italian feuds with a touch of fantasy. [Issue#215, p.73]

Mar 18, 2017RPG that has a remarkable and intriguing world, a good story and solid battle system. Unfortunately, its linearity is lowers its attraction as the players want to see much more from the game universe.

Oct 22, 2016Masquerada: Songs and Shadows has a rich and original lore but it fails in gameplay. The combat system seems complex and interesting, but it’s problematic and incomplete. A missed opportunity.

Oct 27, 2016Those hoping for a solid all-around RPG experience will find Masquerada lacking. However, as a relatively quick narratively-focused experience — clocking in at a bit over ten hours, or more depending on how players approach the combat — the game does an entertaining job.
-
Oct 20, 2016Masquerada declines as the plot slows down. The herky-jerky pace gets more grating, the mania for proper nouns more distracting. What looked like a scrappy little underdog RPG turns out to be a collection of worn-out ideas.
