    An amazing indie isometric tactical rpg beautiful music and almost a handdrawn feel with the graphics reminds me alot of banner saga or pillars of eternity but the battles are not as slow as a traditional tactical rpg and you dont use AP up when you move.( no little squares). great story that pulls you in. give this a try if you like diablo or baldurs gate or pillars of eternityAn amazing indie isometric tactical rpg beautiful music and almost a handdrawn feel with the graphics reminds me alot of banner saga or pillars of eternity but the battles are not as slow as a traditional tactical rpg and you dont use AP up when you move.( no little squares). great story that pulls you in. give this a try if you like diablo or baldurs gate or pillars of eternity or paths of exile great… Collapse

    When we hear the word masquerade, we usually think of a social gathering where people wear masks and other fancy attire. But this word is much more than a mere event. As a noun, a masquerade can also signify a false pretense or show. And as a verb, a person who masquerades is a person who pretends to be something they are not. With definitions like these, masquerada is a truly fitting title for this game. Underneath its guise of political machinations, Masquerada: Songs and Shadows is a mirror depicting the ever-present shadows in society while also reflecting the societal masquerade that humanity subconsciously participates in.

    Masquerada's got heat - give it a chance, and it'll give you a wonderful world to lose yourself in. [Nov 2017, p.79]

    Copious amounts of story content occasionally broken up by challenging tactical combat will keep you entertained for hours. Masquerada is a beautiful game with fantastic well written characters and a plethora of story content. If you’re the type that likes to take their time and absorb themselves in the world then Masquerada: Songs and Shadows is the game for you.
